Good use of music and prayer of St. Francis – touch stones for many people.

John Carten and other SFM priests for providing reflections in recent weeks via this SFM Blog route. Like many others, I’ve found this particular parable rather difficult to understand and even accept. But one key word helped to clarify matters (at least for me) – equating the promised fair wage to “eternal life”.
Question: how does one explain this parable to the Pension Dept at companies where the pension depends on the years of service the employee has worked – from a lifetime to a few years?
