> MORAL LESSON:
> 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!
>
> 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.
>
>
> 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.
