One day an old man who, was an expert in the world of art, died and went to heaven
where he was met by Saint Peter at the pearly gates.
The old man asked Saint Peter to introduce him to other people who were interested in art.
Saint Peter, standing at the pearly gates of heaven said, “See that man with the beard?
He was the greatest artist who ever lived. Want to meet him?”
The old man said, “Saint Peter, I know that man and I know art. That man worked in his father’s
shoe store and he sold me all my shoes for years. And he’s not an artist!”
Saint Peter still standing at the pearly gates of heaven replied,
“Oh, he could have been the greatest artist who ever lived,
but he thought he was a shoe salesman.”
