God created the donkey and said to him,"You will
be a donkey. You will work untiringly from sunrise
to sunset carrying burdens on your back. You will
eat grass, you will have no intelligence and you
will live 50 years. "
The donkey answered,"I will be a donkey, but to
live 50 years is much. Give me only 20. "
God granted his wish.


God created the dog and said to him,"You will
guard the house of Man. You will be his best friend.
You will eat the scraps that he gives you and you
will live 30 years. You will be a dog. "
The dog answered, Sir, to live 30 years is too
much, give me only 15. "
God granted his wish.


God created the monkey and said to him,"You will
swing from branch to branch doing tricks. You will
be amusing and you will live 20 years. You will be
a monkey. "
The monkey answered, to live 20 years is too
much. Give me only 10."
God granted his wish.


Finally God created man, and said to him,"You will
be man, the only rational creature on the face of
earth. You will use your intelligence to become
master over all the animals. You will dominate the
world and you will live 20 years."
Man responded,"Sir, I will be a man but to live only
20 years is very little, give me the 30 years that the
donkey refused, the 15 years that the dog did not
want and the 10 years the monkey refused.
God granted man's wish.
...
And since then...


Man lives 20 years as a man,
marries and spends 30 years like a donkey,
working and carrying all the burdens on his back.
Then when his children are grown...
he lives 15 years like a dog,
taking care of the house and eating whatever is
given to him, so that when he is old, he can retire
and live 10 years like a monkey,
going from house to house and from one son or
daughter to another,
doing tricks to amuse his grand children
....

That's LIFE
