The Donkey
(You have to read it through to the very end)
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 each
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
looked down the well, and was astonished at what he
saw. As every shovel 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, as the donkey
stepped up over the edge of the well and trotted off.
The Moral:
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. 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.
5. Expect less.

OK, that's enough of that Bullshit. The donkey later
came back, caught the farmer out in the field and
kicked the shit out of him. Then he went over to each
of his neighbors farms and kicked the shit
out of them too for helping.
The REAL Moral:
When you try to cover your ass, it always comes back
to get you.
