Farmers and donkeys

old donkey

One day a donkey fell into a deep well. The donkey cried in a sad tone and tried to attract the attention of the farmer. The farmer thought that since the donkey was old, he would not bother to rescue it and would bury it in the middle of the well.

So the farmer started shoveling the soil on the donkey. At first, the donkey, realizing the incident, burst into tears. But after a while, everything calmed down.

The farmer peeked inside the well to find out the reason for this silence. 

Every time the donkey throw the muddy on the ground, he sweeps it back and throws on the ground one step at a time.

Seeing this, the farmer threw more soil in the last the donkey came out of the well.

Expansion of thought

There is a cruel rule in the world that is none likes the weak, the poor as well as the useless goods. Take an example of the virus infection. The government has lifted the lockdown because of the weak, the sick, and the elderly who are dying, young people die less. Everyone is trying to keep the wheel of the economy moving more than their lives. 

But does the old matter?

You have to think now that you will grow old one day. The importance of the elderly is immense. Those who are orphans must have understood. They are the head of the society. 

You will follow their advice because they are very experienced and they will give you honest advice. If you follow the suggestions of the old life will be better. Saying, "Old is gold. Take advice from the work of three heads."

Lessons from the story:

It is general for life to throw dust on you. Your job is to use that pressing soil to rise to the top. Each problem is a step towards a solution if you are positive enough to put it to use. It is possible to get rid of any deep well unless you give up.

Remind That a positive attitude is a key to all success. It makes a man happy.
