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 that the animal was old and the well needed to be covered up anyway. It just didn't seem worth it to try and save the donkey.
The farmer invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. They each brought a shovel and began shoveling 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 looked down into the well, and was astonished at what he saw. As every shovel-full of dirt hit his back, the donkey did 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 to see the donkey actually step up and over the edge of the well's wall and trot off.
MORAL OF THE STORY:
Life is going to shovel dirt on you.......... all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of "the well" is to shake off that dirt 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
1. Free your heart from hatred
2. Free your mind from worries
3. Live simply
4. Give more and
5. Expect less.
OK...................... ENOUGH BULLS**T!!!!!
The donkey came back later, caught the farmer out in the field and kicked the livin' shit out of him. Then, the donkey went over to each of the neighbors that had helped the farmer earlier and kicked the shit out of all them, too.
THE REAL MORAL OF THE STORY:
WHEN YOU TRY TO COVER YOUR ASS, IT ALWAYS COMES BACK TO GET YOU!
