RESULT AND NOT THE EFFORT THAT MATTERS

On a particular day one priest and a bus driver expired at the same time by coincidence.Both of them were taken to the to the common entrance of the hell and heaven and after due scrutiny both of them were asked to again wait in a queue for entry to the heaven.
The office assistant was having three types of robes ;one made of gold,one made of silver and a general robe to be given to the new entrants according to their status like first class,second class and ordinary class depending upon their deeds while alive.
The priest saw the driver was standing in front of him whom he knew very well for abusive mouth, loutish and rough behaviour apart from being under the impression of the cheap Alcohol all the time.The priest failed to understand how he could get entry to heaven but was sure that he would be given a general robe granting general status.
However to his dismay,the priest found that the loud mouth driver was given a gold robe while the priest was given a general robe-- not even a silver robe.The priest became very agitated and complained to the GOD saying my lord during my life time ,I had been chanting your names from morning till dead of night but that driver was the most uncivilised man ,abusive  and used to remain always drunk.while I got a general status,the wicked bus driver was given the most coveted first class status.There seems to be gross injustice my lord.
The God replied yes I agree to what you say but what was the result! Very few used to attend to you and even those persons used to engage themselves on their personal discussion without listening to you let alone chanting my name
On the other hand the bus driver who used to ply bus between uddupi Man galore route used to drive the vehicle being fully drunk in a lightening speed and the bus full of passengers used to shout my name aloud till they reach their destination.Now you tell me whose contribution is more.I am interested not in the means but with the end only.
Moral of the story:-
It is not your effort that counts but it is your result that is what is taken in to consideration.
