The teachings of a donkey.

One day a farmer’s donkey fell into a well. The animal cried loudly for hours, while the farmer tried to find something to do to get him out. 


Finally, he decided that the donkey was old and the well was already dry and it was not worth pulling the donkey out of the well. 


He called his neighbors for help. They grabbed a shovel and began to throw sand into the well. The donkey realized and cried horribly. 


Then, to everyone's surprise, he quieted down after a few shovelfuls of dirt. The farmer finally looked down into the well and was amazed at what he saw... with each shovelful of dirt, the donkey was doing something incredible: 


It was shaking off the dirt and stepping on top of the dirt. Very soon everyone saw surprised how the donkey reached the mouth of the well, went over the edge and trotted out... 


Life is going to throw dirt at you, all kinds of dirt... the trick to getting out of the hole is to shake it off and use it to step up. 


Each of our problems is a step up. We can get out of the deepest holes if we don't give up... Use the land they throw you to get ahead!!!
