A LESSON OF THE DAY: Wisdom of the 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!
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 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 happens.
3. Live simply and appreciate what you
have.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less from people but -more
from God. You have two choices…smile and
close this page, or pass this along to
someone else to share the lesson !!-
"Being happy doesn't mean everything's
perfect. It means you've decided to see
beyond the imperfections"
Enjoy Life & Stay Happy this new Month of
July Good evening.
