Chinese Moral Story : The Donkey that fell into the dry well

How are you little donkey.


   One day, a donkey accidentally fell into a dry well. The donkey tried to move around hoping to find an escape route. However the well it too deep and the donkey was unable to escape. The owner had no other choice but to look at it and feeling hopeless. The poor donkey brayed  loudly and looked distress.

  After several hours had pass. the bray of the donkey got softer as the time goes by. The owner thought that the donkey had met its end, so he reluctantly made the decision to fill up the well, burying the donkey alive. He feel that the donkey should deserve a pleasant burial ground.

  So the owner went home and picked up a shovel. Then he began fill the well with dirt. Shortly after that the donkey's bray can be heard from the well. He was shocked when he look down the well. Each shovel of sand onto the donkey, donkey will quickly shake them down. The donkey will then use its hooves and start stamping the dirt compacting it.Thus, as the dirt fill into the well, the donkey got higher and got nearer to the wellhead.

  After a while, dry well soon filled with dirt, the donkey able to escape from the well.

Shake it off. Shake it off. Yeah !!!

In life we often encounter similar situation. Even though we feel a lot of pain, we should look it as dirt that come to us, and we should all shake it to the ground and make it into our stepping stone. Learn from the donkey and follow Taylor Swift
