When I was swimming with my grandson the other day, he kept on trying to drink from the pool water. I told him to be careful and not to drink that water because it contains chemicals. He stopped, but he looked utterly disappointed and unconvinced.
Every now and then I would catch him trying to lick the water again, so I would remind him.
We continued playing for a while, then suddenly he said: I wish I would die!
Shocked I asked: but habibi why?
He said: Because I want to be able to drink from the pool when I swim, and in heaven pools don’t have chemicals!
