One day a cat dies of
natural causes and goes to heaven. There he meets the Lord Himself. The
Lord says to the cat, “You lived a good life and if there is any way I
can make your stay in Heaven more comfortable, please let me know.” The
cat thinks for a moment and says, “Lord, all my life I have lived with a
poor family and had to sleep on a hard wooden floor.” The Lord stops the
cat and says, “Say no more,” and a wonderful fluffy pillow appears.
A
few days later, six
mice are killed in a tragic farming accident and go to heaven. Again, the
Lord is there to great them with the same offer. The mice answer, “All
of our lives we have been chased. We
have had to run from cats, dogs and even women with brooms. Running,
running, running, we’re tired of running. Do you think we could have
roller skates so we don’t have to run anymore?” The Lord says, “Say
no more,” and fits each mouse with beautiful new roller skates.
About a week later the
Lord stops by to see the cat and finds him snoozing on the pillow. The
Lord gently wakes the cat and asks him, “How are things since you got
here?” The cat stretches and yawns and replies, “It is wonderful here.
Better than I could have ever expected.
And those ‘Meals on Wheels’ you’ve been sending by are the
best!”
A boy and his father
visiting from a third world country were at a shopping centre.
They were
amazed by almost everything they saw, but especially by two shiny, silver
walls that could move apart and back together again.
The boy asked his father, “What is this, Father?” The father
responded, “Son, I have never seen anything like this in my life, I
don’t know what it is!”
While the boy and his father were watching
wide-eyed, an elderly old lady shuffled up to the moving walls and pressed
a button.
The walls opened and the lady stepped between them into a small
room.
The walls closed and the boy and his father watched small circles of
lights with numbers above the walls light up.
They continued to watch the
circles light up in the reverse direction.
The walls opened up again and a
voluptuous 24-year old woman stepped out.
The father turned to
his son and said, “Son, go get your mother”.
