God created the donkey and told him: "You will work tirelessly from sunrise to sunset, carrying heavy bags on your back, you'll eat grass, you will not have intelligence and you will live 50 years. Basically you will be a DONKEY!".

The donkey answered: I’ll be a donkey, but living 50 years is too much, give me only 20 years". So God gave him 20 years.

Next, God created a dog and told him. "You will look after the mans house, you will be his best friend, you will eat whatever they give you, and you will live 25 years. In other words you will be a DOG!".

The dog answered: "God, living 25 years is too much, I only need to live 10 years”. So God grant him his wish and gave him 10 years.

Next, God created the monkey and told him: "You will jump from branch to branch, you will do silly things you will be amusing and you will live 20 years".

The monkey answered: "God living 20 years is too much, please give 10 years only”. So God agreed.

Finally God created man, and told him: "You will be MAN, the only rational being on this earth, you will use your intelligence to control other animals, you will dominate the world and you will live for 20 years”.

The man answered: "God, I'll be man, but living 20 years is not long enough, why don't you give me the 30 years that the donkey refused, the 20 years that the dog did not want and the 10 years that the monkey refused”?

Seeing that man is truly more intelligent than animals, God granted man his wish. Since then, Man lives 20 years like man, then gets married and spends 30 years like a donkey, working from morning to evening, then when the children grow up and leave, spends 15 years like a dog, looking after the house and eating whatever is given to him, then he gets old, retires, and spends the last 10 years like a monkey, jumping from house to house or from children to children, doing silly things to amuse the grandchildren.

True enough????
