Journal Entry for September 5, 2007 Mood
Wednesday, September 5, 2007
Subject: 7%  DEDICATED TO ALL MY FRIENDS HERE ON DS!!  LOVE YOU GUYS!!
> >
> >
> >A holy man was having a conversation with the Lord one day and said, 'Lord,
> >I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like.'
> >
> >The Lord led the holy man to two doors.
> >
> >He opened one of the doors and the holy man looked in. In the middle of the
> >room was a large round table. In the middle of the table was a large pot of
> >stew, which smelled delicious and made the holy man's mouth water.
> >
> >The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared to
> >be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles that were
> >strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach into the pot of
> >stew and take a spoonful.
> >
> >But because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the
> >spoons back into their mouths.
> >
> >The holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering.
> >
> >The Lord said, 'You have seen Hell.'
> >
> >They went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same as
> >the first one. There was the large round table with the large pot of stew
> >which made the holy man's mouth water. The people were equipped with the
> >same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well nourished and
> >plump,
> >laughing and talking. The holy man said, 'I don't understand.'
> >
> >It is simple,' said the Lord. 'It requires but one skill. You see they have
> >learned to feed each other, while the greedy think only of themselves.'
> >
> >Its estimated 93% won't forward this. If you are one of the 7% who will,
> >forward this with the title '7%'.
> >
> >Remember that I will always share my spoon with you.
