And God said, "No problem! I will create a companion for you that
Will be with you forever and who will be a reflection of my love for
you, so That you will know that I love you even when you cannot see me.
Regardless of how selfish or childish or unloveable you may be, this new
companion will Accept you as you are and will love you as I do, in spite
of yourself."
And God created a new animal to be a companion for Adam. And it was
A good animal. And God was pleased. And the new animal was pleased to
be with Adam and he wagged his tail. And Adam said, "Lord, I have
already named all the animals in the Kingdom and I cannot think of a name
for this new animal."
And God said, "No problem! Because I have created this new animal to
Be a reflection of my love for you, his name will be a reflection of my
own name, and you will call him DOG."
And Dog lived with Adam and was a companion to him and loved him. And
Adam was comforted. And God was pleased. And Dog was content and wagged
his tail. After awhile, it came to pass that Adam's guardian angel came
to the Lord and said, "Lord, Adam has become filled with pride. He
struts and preens like a peacock and he believes he is worthy of
adoration. Dog has indeed taught him that he is loved, but perhaps too
well."
And the Lord said, "No, problem! I will create for him a companion
who will be with him forever and who will see him as he is. The
companion will remind him of his limitations, so he will know that he is
not always worthy of adoration."
And God created CAT to be a companion to Adam. And Cat would not obey
Adam. And when Adam gazed into Cat's eyes, he was reminded that he was
not the supreme being. And Adam learned humility.
And God was pleased. And Adam was greatly improved.
And Dog was happy.
And Cat didn't give a darn one way or the other.
