Story title : Keep Looking Up
By: Willi Hoffsuemmer

     While God was creating this earth, he asked the animals what wishes they had, and he fulfilled them all.
      But when the humans heard about this, they were upset because they had never been consulted. "We'll never be satisfied with the way this earth was made, "they complained to the Lord.
    "You're not supposed to be, "replied the Lord. "This earth was not meant to be your home. Heaven is your home."
      That is why, ever since then, animals walk with their eyes looking towards the earth, while humans stand erect and look towards heaven.
