One day, God created the dog and said: "Sit all day
by the door of your
house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past.
For this, I will give
you a life span of twenty years."

The dog said: "That's a long time to be barking.
How about only ten years
and I'll give you back the other ten? So God agreed.

On the next day, God created the monkey and said:
"Entertain people,do
tricks, and make them laugh. For this, I'll give
you a twenty-year life
span."

The monkey said: "Monkey tricks for twenty years?
That's a pretty long time
to perform. How about I give you back ten like the
Dog did?"
And God agreed.

On the next day, God created the cow and said: "You
must go into the field
with the farmer all day long and suffer under the
sun, have calves and give
milk to support the farmer's family. For this, I
will give you a life span
of sixty years."

The cow said: "That's kind of a tough life you want
me to live for sixty
years. How about twenty and I'll give back the
other forty?"

And God agreed again.

Then on the next day, God created man and said:
"Eat, sleep, play,marry and
enjoy your life. For this, I'll give you twenty
years."

But man said: "Only twenty years? Could you
possibly give me my twenty, the
forty the cow gave back, the ten the monkey gave
back, and the ten the dog
gave back; that makes eighty, okay?"

"Okay," said God, "You asked for it."

So that is why the first twenty years we eat, sleep,
play and enjoy
ourselves

For the next forty years we slave in the sun to
support our family.

For the next ten years we do monkey tricks to
entertain the grandchildren.

And for the last ten years we sit on the front porch
and bark at everyone.

Life has now been explained to you.
