 Story Time: The donkey, the dog, the monkey and the human.

Long long time ago when the Earth was still growing up, god create the donkey and said: -„you will be a donkey and you will work your ass off and you will carry on everything they put on your back, and you will live for 33 years”; and the donkey answered:-“Lord, I will be anything you want, but 33 years is too much, why not only 20 years? And so god created the donkey.


After that he created the dog and said: -“you will be a dog, and you will guard and protect the house of humans and eat only what they´ll feed you and you will live for 27 years”; and the dog answered: -“Lord, I will be anything you want, but I find 27 years of life to long, why not only 15 years? And so god created the dog.
 

After that he created the monkey and said: - “You will be a monkey, you will clown around to entertain others and you will live 10 years”; and the monkey answered: -“Lord, I will be anything you want but 10 years is a very long time, why not only 5 years? And so god created the monkey.
 

Finally, he created the human and said: -“you will be a human, the most intelligent being on the face of the earth…you will try to control and dominate the world, and you will live 30 years”; and the human answered: - “Lord, I will be anything you want but 30 years is a short time, why don´t you give me the 13 years the donkey rejected, the 12 years the dog didn´t want and the 5 years the monkey didn´t accept?” And so god created the human.

That´s how human live 30 years like a man, after that he gets married and live 13 years like a donkey working his as off and carrying on the weight of a family; then he gets retired and lives 12 years like a dog…guarding the house and eating what others feed him; after he ends up living 5 years like a monkey jumping from one child´s house to the other and clowning around to entertain his grandchildren. . .
