Conversations with God Page #2

Am I gonna have to tickle you

to get you to go upstairs?

I'm gonna get you

Hurry up.

- Come on.

- You're doing it wrong!

It's the way I did it

on the other side!

Nope.

That don't go there.

You're doing it wrong.

Let me show you how to do it.

- That's not what the instructions say.

- Nope. That don't go there.

Let me show you how to do it.

Tie the line to the tree.

Make it high enough...

so you don't kill yourself

in the middle of the night.

I kind of wish I had

one of those old canvas jobs...

that you pitch from the inside!

I take it this isn't

your first time pitching a...

tent.

Please, God...

don't let me die here.

To God,

there is no separation...

between financial abundance

and spirituality.

In fact, they go hand in hand.

Don't you find it odd

that we live...

in a society that devalues

our most important jobs?

- What do you mean by that?

- I mean, we have no problem...

giving a football coach

five million a season...

or-or an actor

10 million per movie...

but somehow we've got it wired...

where people involved

with spirituality...

should be penniless,

celibate and-and abstinent.

And preferably all three, you know?

- Yeah. Right.

- I mean, I don't know about you...

but I-I don't- I don't remember

voting for any of that.

- No.

- So imagine a world...

where money was given

to people who give us the biggest gifts.

- Teachers.

- Oh, yes.

- Artists.

- Yes.

- Nurses.

- Yes.

Uh, firemen.

You know, policemen.

Writers.

And mothers!

Mothers. That's right.

Yes.

People who connect us,

not disconnect...

or-or-or distract us, you know.

Imagine that world.

And we can have it,

because, people...

we're the ones.

We've always been the ones

that we've been waiting for.

We are. We are.

Yeah

You awake in there?

I said, are you awake in there?

Just a minute.

- Morning.

- Uh, good morning.

Name is Oscar. How about you

step out of that tent for a minute?

Uh, what for?

I know you got in late,

but I run things around here...

- and you should be aware of the rules.

- Uh, rules?

Yeah.

I'll walk you through them.

How about you come a little bit

closer so I don't have to yell?

- Okay.

- Okay.

Rent is $25 per week.

Over there

you've got your bathrooms.

Now, our maid quit

about a month ago...

so we'd appreciate it

if you would clean up after yourself.

- Okay.

- Those cabins back there-

- freight on them: 75 per week.

- Right.

Now, down by the water

you've got another picnic area.

Those are reserved for real campers

and real campers only.

Uh, real campers?

They usually arrive by automobile.

They tend to stick around

a couple of days, then move on.

Guy like yourself-
