Conversation with Jesus

[cellboy]

Many times when I am troubled or confused, I find
comfort in sitting in my back yard and having a
vodka
and cranberry along with a quiet conversation with
Jesus.
This happened to me again after a particularly
difficult day. I said "Jesus, why do I work so hard?
And I heard the reply: "Men find many ways to
demonstrate the love they have for their family. You
work hard to have a peaceful, beautiful place for
your
friends and family to gather."
I said: "I thought that money was the root of all
evil."
And the reply was: "No, the LOVE of money is the
root
of all evil. Money is a tool; it can be used for
good
or bad."
I was starting to feel better , but I still had that
one burning question, so I asked it. "Jesus," I
said,
"what is the meaning of life? Why am I here?"
He replied: "That is a question many men ask. The
answer is in your heart and is different for
everyone.
I would love to chat with you some more, Senor, but
for now, I have to finish your lawn."
