Balance
God was missing for six days. Eventually Michael the Archangel
found him, resting on the seventh day. He inquired, "Where have you
been?"
God smiled deeply and proudly pointed downwards through the clouds,
"Look, Michael.. Look what I've made." Archangel Michael looked
puzzled, and said. "What is it?" "It's a planet," replied God, "and
I've put life on it. I'm going to call it Earth and it's going to be a place to
test Balance."
"Balance?" inquired Michael, "I'm still confused." God explained,
pointing to different parts of earth. "For example, Northern Europe
will be a place of great opportunity and wealth, while Southern Europe
is going to be poor. Over here I've placed a continent of white
people, and over there is a continent of black people. Balance in all
things." God continued pointing to different countries. "This one
will be extremely hot, while this one will be very cold and covered in
ice."
The Archangel, impressed by God's work, then pointed to an area
and said, "What's that one?" "That's Washington State, the most
glorious place on earth. There are beautiful mountains, rivers and
streams, lakes, forests, hills and plains. The people from Washington
State are going to be handsome, modest, intelligent, humorous and
they are going to travel the world. They will be extremely sociable,
hardworking, high achieving, carriers of peace and producers of
software."
Michael gasped in wonder and admiration, but then asked, "But what
about balance, God? You said there would be balance." God smiled,
"There's another Washington. Wait till you see the jackasses I put there."
