The title of this article is “The Farmer’s Donkey”. This article is about an old donkey that falls down a well. The donkey’s owner, the farmer, decides to cover the donkey with dirt because the hole needs to be filled anyways. The donkey realizes that he is being buried. At first, he cries for help, but then starts to shake the dirt off of him and take a step up until he can climb out.
I agree with the messages in this article. I think that it is always worth it to keep trying and persevere through all of the dirt that life throws at you. Don’t be the farmer, the one who puts others down. Be the donkey, and never give up on anything in life. I can relate this article to my mom, because she perseveres through the obstacles that stand in front of her, like heart problems, tight budgets, and busy schedules.
I will use this story to help me get through some tough things that will stand in my way in the future. If I have a tough day, I will know that the only option is to keep going and persevere. I have to be able to step up onto that dirt that people throw at me. When I get a job, I will always think of that dirt as an obstacle to overcome, not an excuse to make people feel sorry for me. Some people like to make others feel bad about themselves, but I will not let them get to me. I will let those people go.
