A holy man was  having a conversation with God one day and said,
' God , I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like.'

God 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 impossible 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.

God 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 God . '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%'.

I'm in the  7%

Remember  that I will always share my spoon with you  !.
Friends  are the  family that we choose for ourselves .
