One day a farmer ’s donkey(驴) fell into a well(井). The donkey cried for hours as the farmer tried to find a way to get it out. Finally, he decided to give up the donkey, because it was old, and the well was needed to be covered up.
He invited all of his neighbors to come over and help him. They all began to fill the well with dirt(土). The donkey realized what was happening and began to cry. Then, to everyone ’s surprise, it became quiet. A few minutes later, the farmer finally looked down the well. He was surprised at what he saw. With each shovel(铲) of the dirt that hit its back, the donkey shook(摇晃) it off and took a step up.
As the farmer ’s neighbors went on to shovel dirt on top to the donkey, he still shook it off and took a step up. Pretty soon, the donkey happily got out.
Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. Each of our troubles is a stepping stone. You can get out of the deepest well just by not stopping and never giving up.
Shake it off and take a step up.

Long long ago, a donkey(驴) fell into a well(井). The animal cried for hours as the farmer tried to think out what to do. Finally, the farmer thought the animal was too old and the well needed to be covered up anyway, so he decided not to save the donkey.
The farmer invited his neighbours to help him. They began to shovel(铲) dirt into the well. The donkey cried harder. But a few minutes later, he became quiet. The farmer looked into the well, and was surprised by what he saw.
While every shovelful of dirt hit his back, the donkey would shake it off and take a step on the new layer of dirt. As the farmer’s neighbours continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, the donkey would shake it off and take another step up. Soon the donkey stepped up out of the well and ran away, to the surprise of all the neighbours.
