A man had a dream. In his dream, he first went to hell. In hell, there was plenty of food to eat, but the only way anyone in hell could eat food was to use very long forks. The forks were longer than any person's arm, so there was much frustration, as no one could get the food into his mouth. Later in his dream, the man went to heaven. In heaven, everyone was enjoying the wonderful "heavenly" food. In fact, it was the same food they had in hell. Also, in heaven, everyone had to eat with the same long forks. The difference was, that in heaven, everyone fed his neighbor instead of himself.
Sometimes greed keeps us from sharing and enjoying abundant wealth.
