31. A deal with God
Three priests were talking over lunch. They were discussing how much money they take for themselves from the collection box, and how much they spend on their religious institution.
The first priest said, 'All the money I collect, I draw a line on the ground and throw all the money up in the air. Whatever falls this side of the line is mine and whatever falls the other side is God's!!
The second priest said, 'I do the same! I draw a big circle on the ground and throw all the money up in the air. Whatever falls outside the circle, 1 give it to God, and whatever falls inside the circle, I take it for myself!'
Then came the third priest - a very intelligent guy. He said, '1 always let God decide how much He wants.'
'Really? How do you do that?'. asked the other two priests in surprise. "Well, I just throw everything up in the air and yell out to God, "Take whatever you want!" Whatever God doesn't take falls down, and it's mine!
This is how we try to cheat Life, this is how we try to outsmart Life. But Life is too intelligent to be cheated! When you try to cheat Life, you will be cheated by Life. When you try to outsmart Life, you will be outsmarted by Life.
