The Donkey attitude - SHAKE IT OFF AND TAKE A STEP UP

Stories are pleasant, interesting to listen to. And through stories when lessons are taught it makes an impact in the mind and last long. Heres one such story which gives a great lesson about the ATTITUDE.

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....shake it off and take a step....

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. we need to shake it off and take a step up....The trick is to get 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 by not just stopping , never giving up!!Shake it off and take a step up.
