Two traveling angelsKeep reading to the bottom of the page -- don't stop at the feet (You'll see).Two traveling angels stopped to spend the nightin the home of a wealthy family.The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion's guest room.Instead the angels were given a small space in the cold basement.As they made their bed on the hard floor, theolder angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it.When the younger angel asked why, the older angelreplied,"Things aren't always what they seem."The next night the pair came to rest at the houseof a very poor, but very hospitable farmer and his wife.After sharing what little food they had the couplelet the angels sleep in their bed where they couldhave a good night's rest.When the sun came up the next morning the angelsfound the farmer and his wife in tears.Their only cow, whose milk had been their soleincome, lay dead in the field.The younger angel was infuriated and asked theolder angel how could you have let this happen?The first man had everything, yet you helped him,she accused.The second family had little but was willing toshare everything, and you let the cow die."Things aren't always what they seem," the olderangel replied."When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in thewall.Since the owner was so obsessed with greed andunwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed thewall so he wouldn't find it."<o ="">:P></o>:P><o ="">:P></o>:P>
"Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed,the angel of death came for his wife. I gave him the cow instead.Things aren't always what they seem."Sometimes that is exactly what happens when thingsdon't turn out the way they should.
