MORAL FOR TODAY
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 quietened 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 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:
Free your heart from hatred – Forgive !
Free your mind from worries - Most never happen !
Live simply and appreciate what you have !
Give more !
Expect less !
NOW.......
Enough of that crap . The donkey later came back, and bit 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.

j4allrakyat. fully agree with your statement. These corrupt parties had screwed things up for so many decades. They have not only squandered away the country's wealth. They have wasted every opportunity to grow the nation that god had given us.

ReplyDeleteIf you have nothing positive to say shut your donkey mouth and nobody will say you are a donkey ..Mauhahah baa...baaa..baa donkey idiot !
He sounds more like a mule rather than a donkey and a damn stupid one too ..
ReplyDeleteWhat a dwork or twat or chimera half beathuman munufactured from sremcell laboratories that doesn't understand the languague and freedom of expression. The desire to restore wasted opportunities by MCA at this point in time is a little too late albeit encourage for the political quamire has left that possibility as belated and hard to get the support and allegiance of the raykat. Had they done this decades ago there may be some reprieve but now sounds ludicrous and funny. It is the comedidian out of tune and out we pipe and you don't p;ay to the dance. Too late mate, there are other options like Dap and Pkr to court the chinese.
