A Morality Story

A morality 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

1. Free your heart from hatred - Forgive.
2. Free your mind from worries - Most never happen.
3. Live simply and appreciate what you have.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less

The donkey later came back and bit the shit out of 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!
