Life lessons, cheer up!


I am feeling a bit down today and this made me laugh. It was forwarded to me by one of my friends and I like to share it with you hoping it will put a smile on your face as it did to me. Author unknown.

On the first day, God created the 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 twenty years."

The said, "That's a long time to be barking. How about only ten
years and I'll give you back the other ten?"

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
twenty-year life span."

The monkey said, "Monkey tricks for twenty years? That's a pretty
long time to perform. How about I give you back ten like the 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 sixty years."

The cow said, "That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years.
How about twenty and I'll give back the other forty?"

And God agreed again......

On the fourth day, God created humans and said, "Eat, sleep, play, marry
and enjoy your life. For this, I'll give you twenty years."

But the human said, "Only twenty years? Could you possibly give me
my twenty, the forty the cow gave back, the ten the monkey gave back,
and the ten the gave back; that makes eighty, okay?"

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

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

Life has now been explained to you.
There is no need to thank me for this valuable information. I'm doing it as
a public service. If you are looking for me I will be on the front porch.
