COULD BE WORSE

Some years ago, Charles Schulz pictured Charlie Brown bringing out Snoopy’s dinner on Thanksgiving Day, but it was just his usual dog food in a bowl. So, Snoopy took one look at the dog food and said, "This isn’t fair. The rest of the world today is eating turkey with all the trimmings and all I get is dog food. Why? Because I’m a dog, so all I get is dog food?"

He stood there and stared at his dog food for a moment, then he said, "I guess it could be worse. I could be a turkey."

(From a sermon by Mark Schaeufele, "A Messiah Who Understands" 1/22/2009)
