Once upon a time there was a dad and 3 kids. When the kids were adults, the dad was old and Death came to take the dad. The first son, who became a lawyer, begged Death to let the dad live a few more years. Death agreed. When Death came back, the second son, who became a doctor, begged Death to let his father live a few more days. Death agreed. When Death came back, the third son, who became a priest, begged Death to let the dad live till that candle wick burned out, and he pointed to a candle. Death agreed. The third son knew Death wouldn’t come back, and he didn’t.

Why not?
