A Lesson From A Donkey!

                 A Lesson From A Donkey!

                 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 stepping stone. 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.
                  He 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.
