Letter to Heaven

A little boy wanted 100 rupees badly and prayed for two weeks but nothing happened. Then he decided to write a letter to the Lord requesting the money. When the postal authorities received the letter addressed to the Lord, India, they decided to send it to the President

The President was so impressed, touched, and amused that he instructed his secretary to send the little boy a 10 rupee bill. The President thought this would appear to be a lot of money to a little boy.

The little boy was delighted with the money and sat down to write a thank-you note to the Lord, which read:

Dear Lord, Thank you very much for sending me the money. However, I noticed that for some reason you had to send it through Delhi and as usual, those jerks deducted 95 rupees. Love, Tommy
