(retrieved from the office drawer of an outgoing Christian Mideast Expat)
Last night as I lay sleeping - I died or so it seemed,
Then I went to heaven - But only in my dream.
Up there St Peter meet me - Standing at the pearly gate,
He said, "I just go check your record - Please stand right here and wait."
He turned and said, "Your record ... is covered with terrible flaws,
On earth I see you rallied - For every losing cause.
I see that you drank alcohol - And smoked and slept with women too,
Fact is, you've done everything - A good person should never do.
We can't have people like you up here - Your life is full of sin",
Then he read the last of my record - Took my hand and said, "Come in".
He dictated to the big boss - "Take him in and treat him well",
He used to work in the Mideast - He's done his time in hell".
Lesson: Harsh living condition of the middle east and indiscriminate indulging in sinful acts in this life could usher in unexpected surprise or prize in the Afterlife! But don't count on it though on all instances...You know, it will be done on a case-by-case basis...
