Creation

Well, this explains it all really.

CREATION:

On the first day, God created the dog and said:

"Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who
comes in or walks past. For this, I will give you a life span
of 20
years."

The dog said: "That's a long time to be barking. How about
only
10 years and I'll give you back the other 10?" So God
agreed.

On the second day, God created the monkey and said:
"Entertain people, do tricks, and make them laugh. For this,
I'll
give you a 20- year life span." The monkey said: "Monkey
tricks for 20
years?
That's a pretty long time to perform. How about I give you
back 10 like the
dog
did?" And God agreed.

On the third
day, God created the cow and said:

"You must go into the field with the farmer all day long and
suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support
the farmer's
family For this, I will give you a life span of 60 years."
The cow said: "That's kind of a tough life you want me to
live
for 60 years. How about 20 and I'll give back the other 40?"

And God agreed again.

On the fourth day, God created man and said:
"Eat, sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. For this, I'll
give
you 20 years." But man said: "Only 20 years? Could you
possibly give me my
20,
the 40 the cow gave back, the 10 the monkey gave back, and
the 10
the dog gave back; that makes 80, okay?"

"Okay," said God, "You asked for it."

So that is why for our first 20 years we eat, sleep, play and
enjoy ourselves.. For the next 40 years we slave in the
sun to support
our family. For the next 10 years we do monkey tricks to
entertain the
grandchildren. And for the last 10 years we sit on the front
porch and bark at everyone.

Life has now been explained to you...
