A lucky fellow who recently had "passed on" was given the rare
opportunity to tour both heaven and hell and decide which he would
prefer to spend eternity in. (Suspend whatever you beliefs you have
for the moment and treat this story for what it is: a parable. Thank
you!)
OK to continue...
He was taken first to hell and there he saw a long table spread out
infinitely in two directions covered with a sumptuous spread of food.
The people that were seated at this table, however, were clearly
starving and miserable because they could not bend their elbows and
therefore could not feed themselves any of the wonderful food and
drink laid out on the table without resorting to eating like beasts.
Whenever they bent to eat like a beast, the food magically transformed
to maggot infested slop in their mouths that they either spit out
or ... well, just suffice to say it was not pretty!
Next, our lucky fellow was taken to heaven. What surprised him the
most that what he saw there was the same table laid with all the
wonderful food, but the people were well fed, happy and talking,
singing, and having a wonderful time. The people here could not bend
their elbow either, but the difference was they cared about more than
themselves and fed their neighbors across the table from them.
Now where would you want to be? Heaven or Hell and why?
I became a notary to help others. I learned administrative process to
help others. The answer to the question above is a rather personal
one, but I will share my answer. It may surprise you. I would go to
hell and show the folks there how they can feed each other.
You came to this group for your reason(s). I encourage each and every
one of you who are not already notaries to become a notary. I also
encourage each and every notary to learn all they can about
administrative process and who you can be for others.
Finally, I leave you with a question: Are you going to feed others so
you can be fed or are you going to feed others so they can be fed?
