EVEN GOD HAS A SENSE OF HUMOUR

 God was in the process of creating the universe.

And he was explaining to his subordinates "Look everything

should be in balance. For example, after every 10 deer there

should be a lion.

Look here my fellow angels, here is the country of the

United States.I have blessed them with prosperity and

money.But at the same time I have given them insecurity

and tension....

And here is Africa. I have given them beautiful nature.But

at the same time, I have given them climatic extremes.

And here is South America. I have given them lots of

forests.But at the same time, I have given them lesser

land so that they would have to cut off the forests...So you see

fellows, everything should be in balance.

One of the angels asked..."God, what is this extremely

beautiful country here?"

God said....... "Ahah...that is the crown piece of all.

"INDIA",My most precious creation.It has understanding and

friendly People.

Sparkling streams and serene mountains.A culture which

speaks of the great tradition that they live.Technologically

brilliant and with a heart of gold.....

The angel was quite surprised:"But god you said everything

should be in balance."

God replied -- "Look at the neighbours I gave them."

STORY WITH MORAL COW & PIG

A rich Goan landlord who once asked his parish priest-- 'Why does everybody call me stingy when everyone knows that when I die I will leave everything I have to this church?'

The priest said; 'There once was a pig and a cow in this village. The pig was unpopular and the cow was loved by all in the village. This puzzled the pig. The pig said to the cow, 'people speak warmly of your good nature and your helpful attitude. They think you are very generous because each day you give them milk, butter and cheese. But… What about me? I give them everything I have. I give them the famous Goa sausages, bacon and ham. I also provide ingredients for mouth-watering sorpotel. Yet no one likes me. Why is that?'

The priest continued: ' Do you know what the cow answered? '

The Cow said, ' Perhaps it's because I give while I am still living.'
