Wed's lesson of the day.......
from da wolfdog guy......:D
One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried 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
NOW --------
Enough of that cr@p . . .
The donkey later came back and bit the $#!t 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 @$$, it always comes back
to bite you.
