Riddle

Jordan, Aaron, and Amara in the back of the car on the way from school to their respective arts activities.

Jordan: I have a riddle. It is better than God; rich people need it; poor people have it; and if you eat it you die.
Aaron: I do not know.
Rachel: I think I know.
Jordan: Just guess. Not you, Mommy.
Aaron: Marijuana?
Amara: TNT?
Jordan: No. Mommy what do you think?
Rachel: Nothing.
Jordan: Right. See? Nothing is better than God, rich people need nothing, poor people have nothing, and if you eat nothing you die.
Aaron: [giggling] Wow. That is pretty good.
