Twinkies with God.
There once was a little boy who wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long trip to where God lived so he packed his suitcase with twinkies and a six pack of root beer and started his journey. When he had gone about three blocks he met an old man.
He was just sitting on the park bench watching some pigeons. The boy sat down next to him and opened his suitcase. He was about to take a drink of his root beer when he noticed the old man looked hungry so he offered him a twinkie.
The old man gratefully accepted it and smiled at him. His smile was so incredible he wanted to see it again, so he offered him a root beer. Once again he smiled at him!
The boy was absolutely delighted. So they sat there all afternoon smiling and eating and drinking, but they never said a word. As it grew dark the boy realized how tired he was and got up to leave, but before he had gotten a few steps: he turned back around, and gave the old man a hug. The old man gave him the biggest smile ever.
When the boy returned home his mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face! "What did you do this afternoon that has made you so happy?" she asked him.
The boy replied, "I had lunch with God!"
But before his mother could reply, he added "and you know what? He’s got the most beautiful smile I’ve ever seen".
Meanwhile the old man also radiant with joy returned to his own home, his son was stunned by the look of peace on his face and asked "Father what did you do today that made you so happy?" He replied, "I ate twinkies in the park with God."
