When he died, Juan found himself
in an exquisite place surrounded by all the comfort and beauty he had always
dreamed of. A man dressed in white spoke to him: “You can have anything you
want, any food, any pleasure, any diversion.”
Delighted, Juan did everything he
had dreamed of doing while alive. Then after many years of pleasure, he again
searched out the man in white. “I have done everything I wanted to do. Now I
need a job, so that I can feel useful.” – he said.
“I’m sorry,” replied the man in
white. “But that is the one thing I can’t give you. There is no work here.”
“How awful!” said Juan angrily, “That means I’ll spend eternity bored to death!
I wish I was in Hell!”
The man in white came over to him
and said softly: “And where exactly do you think you are, Sir?”
