Two travelling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family. The angels were   26   a small space in the cold basement instead of in the comfortable guestroom. As they made their   27    on the hard floor, the older angel saw a   28   in the wall and repaired it. When the younger angel asked   29   , the older angel replied, "Things aren’t always what they seem."
The next night the pair came to he house of a very poor but  30  farmer and his wife. After   31    what little food they had, the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they   32    have a good night’s rest. When the sun   33   the next morning, the angels found the farmer and his wife   34  . Their cow, whose milk had been their only   35    , lay dead in the field. The younger angel was angry and asked the older angel, “How could you   36    this happen? The first man had everything,   37    you helped him. The second family had    38    but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die   39    help them. ”
"Things aren’t always what they seem," the older angel replied. "When we   40   in the basement, I   41    there was gold stored in that hole in the wall.   42   the owner was greedy and unwilling to share, I covered the wall so that he wouldn’t   43    it."
"Then last night as we slept in the farmer’s bed, the angel of death came   44    his wife. I gave him the cow instead. Things aren’t always what they seem."
Sometimes that is   45   what happens when things don’t turn out the way they should.
