HILARIOUS JOKES AND HUMOR ARCHIVES
Okay, maybe this isn't REALLY what happened, but I think
it's funny nevertheless:)
On the very first day, God created the cow. He said to the
cow, "Today I have created you! As a cow, you must go to the
field with the farmer all day long. You will work all day
under the sun! I will give you a life span of 50 years.."
The cow objected, "What? This kind of tough life you want me
to live for 50 years? Let me have 20 years, and the 30 years
I'll give back to you." So God agreed.
On the second day, God created the dog. God said to the dog,
"What you are supposed to do is to sit all day by the door
of your house. Any people that come in, you will have to
bark at them! I'll give a life span of 20 years."
The dog objected, "What? All day long to sit by the door? No
way! I give you back my other 10 years of life!" So God
agreed.
On the third day, God created the monkey. He said to the
monkey, "Monkeys have to entertain people. You've got to
make them laugh and do monkey tricks. I'll give you 20 years
life span."
The monkey objected. "What? Make them laugh? Do monkey faces
and tricks? Ten years will do, and the other 10 years I'll
give you back." So God agreed.
On the fourth day, God created man and said to him, "Your
job is to sleep, eat, and play. You will enjoy very much in
your life. All you need to do is to enjoy and do nothing.
This kind of life, I'll give you a 20 year life span."
The man objected. "What? Such a good life! Eat, play, sleep,
do nothing? Enjoy the best and you expect me to live only
for 20 years? No way, man!....Why don't we make a deal?
Since the cow gave you back 30 years, and the dog gave you
back 10 years and the monkey gave you back 10 years, I will
take them from you! That makes my life span 70 years,
right?" So God agreed.
AND THAT'S WHY....
In our first 20 years, we eat, sleep, play, enjoy the best
and do nothing much. For the next 30 years, we work all day
long, suffer and get to support the family. For the next 10
years, we entertain our grandchildren by making monkey faces
and monkey tricks. And for the last 10 years, we stay at
home, sit by the front door and bark at people!
My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my
commandments: for length of days, and long life, and peace,
shall they add to thee. Let not mercy and truth forsake
thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of
thine heart: so shalt thou find favour and good
understanding in the sight of God and man.
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto
thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him,
and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own
eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. -Proverbs 3:1
