donkey he hok

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 neighbours 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 neighbours 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 crap . . .
>
> 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.
