Heaven and Hell
After his death, a man was once taken to see both heaven and hell.
In hell there were a lot of
people sitting around a table, on which there was
laid a sumptuous feast.
But all of them were
starving, and crying out in their anguish.
Their
arms were much too long to convey the food to
their mouths.
Then he was taken to Heaven,
where there was an identical scene-people sitting
around a sumptuous feast; here too, their arms
were too long to feed themselves.
But here there
was no starvation and all were satisfied.
They
were all busy feeding one another !
