Donkey's story...

One day a farmer's
donkey fell down into a
well. The
animal cried piteously for hours
as 
the farmer tried to
figure out what to do.

 

Finally, he decided
the animal was old, and the 
well needed to be
covered up anyway; 
it just wasn't worth
it to retrieve the donkey.

He invited all
his neighbors to come over and 
help him. They all
grabbed a shovel and began 
to shovel dirt into
the well. At first, the
donkey realized
what was happening and cried 
horribly. Then, to
everyone's amazement he 
quieted
down.

 

A
few shovel loads later, the farmer
finally
looked down the well. He was
astonished at what 
he saw. With each
shovel of dirt that hit his 
back, the donkey was
doing something amazing. 
He would shake it
off and take a step up.

 

As the farmer's
neighbors continued to shovel 
dirt on top of the
animal, he would shake it 
off and take a step
up.

 

Pretty soon,
everyone was amazed as the
donkey
stepped up over the edge of the
well and 
happily trotted
off!

 

Life is going to
shovel dirt on you, all kinds 
of dirt. The trick
to getting out of the well
is to shake
it off and take a step up. Each
of 
our troubles is a
steppingstone. We can get out 
of the deepest wells
just by not stopping, 
never giving up!
Shake it off and take a step
up.

 

Remember the
five simple rules to be
happy:

 

Free your heart from
hatred - Forgive..

 

Free your mind from
worries - Most never
happen.

 

Live simply and
appreciate what you have.

 

Give
more.

 

Expect
less

 

NOW
............

 

Enough of that
crap . .
 The donkey later came
back, and bit the farmer who
had tried to bury him. 
The gash from the
bite got infected and 
the farmer
eventually died in agony from septic
shock.

MORAL FROM TODAY'S
LESSON:

When you do
something wrong, and try to
cover 
your ass, it always
comes back to bite you.

 

You
have two choices...smile and close

along to someone else to 
spread the
fun.
