Everyone obeyed. With the church filled to the last pew, the priest roared out:<br \/>\n&#8211; Stop all this drinking! All those who want to go to heaven, raise their right hand!<br \/>\nThe entire congregation raised their hand &#8211; everyone but Manoel, who was held by all to be a dignified man who fulfilled all his duties.<br \/>\nSurprised, the priest asked:<br \/>\n&#8211; And you, Manoel, don\u2019t you want to go to heaven when you die?<br \/>\n&#8211; Of course I do. But I still haven\u2019t experienced the life that God has given me, and you want to take it away from me already!<br \/>\nWelcome to Share with Friends &#8211; Free Texts for a Free Internet<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/paulocoelhoblog.com\/2009\/02\/16\/who-wants-to-go-to-heaven\/\">Who wants to go to heaven? at Paulo Coelho\u2019s Blog<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"zemanta-pixie\" style=\"margin-top: 10px; height: 15px;\"><a class=\"zemanta-pixie-a\" title=\"Zemified by Zemanta\" href=\"http:\/\/reblog.zemanta.com\/zemified\/2a35fee2-14e0-4312-b73d-c1e7564abcc5\/\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" style=\"border: medium none; float: right;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/img.zemanta.com\/reblog_e.png?w=525\" alt=\"Reblog this post [with Zemanta]\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For those who believe in God or even who just believes in life, I&#8217;ve come to the belief(too many belief in this sentence) God\/the Universe is not conspiring against me at worst it does not care for me\/us, thus I try to live life in a manner that if not optimistic at least neutral.
