A Pea

Who do identify with in the story of Jonah? Is it Jonah, the Ninevites, the sailors or the fish? Today I want to identify with the fish.
Once upon a time, a long time ago when our children were at home, we were eating peas for supper when a pea went down the wrong way. I started to choke but soon it was okay. However, the pea did not come back up. A couple of days later I was trying to start the lawn mower and every time I pulled the starter on the lawn mower I would begin to cough. Soon up came the pea that was lodged in my wind pipe.

I wonder if the fish had a coughing spree and finally up came Jonah?
