An afternoon in the park

Posted by Phil on September 8, 2000, at 19:06:34


There once was a little boy who wanted to meet God.
He knew it was a long trip to where God lived, so he
packed his suitcase with Twinkies and a six-pack of root
beer and he started his journey.
When he had gone about three blocks, he met an old
woman. She was sitting in the park just staring at some
pigeons. The boy sat down next to her and opened his
suitcase. He was about to take a drink from his root
beer when he noticed that the old lady looked hungry,
so he offered her a Twinkie. She gratefully accepted
it and smiled at him. Her smile was so pretty that the
boy wanted to see it again, so he offered her a root
beer. Once again she smiled at him. The boy was delighted!
They sat there all afternoon eating and smiling, but
they never said a word.
As it began to grow dark, the boy realized how tired
he was and he got up to leave. He turned around, ran back
to the old woman and gave her a hug. She gave him her
biggest smile ever.
When the boy opened the door to his own house a short
time later, his mother was surprised by the look of joy
on his face.
She asked him, "What did you do today that made you
so happy?"
He replied, "I had lunch with God. You know what?
She's got the most beautiful smile I've ever seen!"
Meanwhile, the old woman, also radiant with joy,
returned to her home.
Her son was stunned by the look of peace on her
face and he asked, "Mother, what did you do today that
made you so happy?"
She replied, "I ate Twinkies in the park with God.
You know, he's much younger than I expected."
