He called together the three most important people in his life:

• His Doctor
• His Priest
• His Lawyer

“I’ve just found out that I don’t have much time left,” he said.

“I’ve called you here because you’re the most important people in my life, and I need to ask a favor. I’m giving each of you an envelope with $50,000 inside. When I pass away, I’d like you to throw the money into my grave.”

After the man passed on, the three met up and discussed what they had done.

The doctor said,

“I have to admit, I kept $10,000 to cover some unpaid medical bills, but I threw the remaining $40,000 into the grave as he asked.”

The priest said,

“I must confess, I kept $25,000 for the church, but I did put the other $25,000 into the grave.”

The lawyer was shocked.

“I’m surprised at you two! I wrote a check for the full amount and threw it all in!”

The flight attendant answered warmly, when the woman abruptly said, “Please find me another seat immediately.” The flight attendant responded, “I’m sorry Ma’am, but the economy cabin is fully booked.”

The rich woman replied, “But I’m not going to travel beside a worthless bum. Do something.”
While the elderly man stared in disbelief, the flight attendant responded, “I’ll talk to the Captain about this.”

The flight attendant went to the Captain and asked, “Captain, a woman feels uncomfortable sitting beside a poor elderly man. What should we do?”

Surprisingly, the Captain’s face changed. He looked amused and said, “This woman is interesting. I’ve never encountered an issue like this before. I have a plan. Listen..”

And the Captain relayed to the flight attendant what he wanted to do. The flight attendant was stunned at his plan. She was amazed.

A few minutes later, the flight attendant returned. “The Captain said we could use an open seat in First Class. He also wants to apologize for traveling with such a terrible person.”

As the woman rose out of her seat, the flight attendant reached out her arm towards the poor elderly man. “Sir, will you please follow me?” To which the plane applauded.

Never look down on other people. We are all equal in God’s sight. Regardless of what you have achieved in life, stay humble. Keep your feet on the ground. The bad news is time flies. The good news is you’re the pilot.
