Wheel of Life

God says to me with kind of a smile,
"Hey how would you like to be God awhile
And steer the world?"
"Okay," says I, "I'll give it a try.
Where do I set?
How much do I get?
What time is lunch?
When can I quit?"
"Gimme back that wheel," says God,
"I don't think you're quite ready yet."
~Shel Silverstein

@ Arvindh - Thanks. It was some time ago at home. It is a small (abt 4 inches in diameter) silver showpiece which is enclosed in a glass box with a mirror at the back, hence the reflection. I did not have any new pics to put up, so went searching for in my old lot and found it.

@ Keshi & Ekta - Yes I liked the qoute a lot too. Says so much about human nature, doesn't it.

@ Danush - Thanks :)

@ Jackal - I will sure remember you if I get an offer like this. What would you have done if you had got this offer. Btw have you seen 'Bruce Almighty'.

I enjoy Shel Silverstein, though does tend to be preachy at times.

The quote is awesome! Isnt it similar to "Gita-sar". One should do their intended responsibilities - without thinking of the output. Somehow we are too bothered about too many things :)
