Entrance Exam
Once
upon a time a Soul arrived at Heaven’s gate. Saint Peter asked the Soul, “Do
you deserve Heaven? And are you sure?” The Soul said, “I am sure that I deserve
Heaven.” Saint Peter turned a dial to “seventy years”, pulled a lever, and the
Soul fell through a trapdoor, down and out of sight.
Saint
Peter asked the same questions of the next Soul, who said, “I am sure that I do
not deserve Heaven.” Saint Peter turned the dial to “seven years”, pulled the
lever, and the Soul fell down, to a different destination.
To
Saint Peter’s questions the next Soul said, “I am not sure that I deserve
Heaven.” Saint Peter said, “You too? Come on in.”
Moral:
Don’t be too sure about yourself.
