The Quintessential Donkey



To carry his load without resting, not to be bothered by heat or cold and always be content: these three things we can learn from a donkey.

    That is the best thing I have seen while surfing the blogs this evening! Now that I am content, immovable, and even a little sleepy standing up, it is time to swish my tail at the flies and go to bed! Thanks for a great bedtime story!
    Love, Mrs. Slug

    If I had to have a horse I would buy one and if I had to have a mule I would get one of those. If I didn't really need either but still wanted something pretty, I'd get me a donkey.

    Wo! What a perspective!! :) I love donkeys; they are so generous and selfless!!!

    Something out of the topic; is that you in the top-right photo?

    And oh yes, the summer has turned into Monsoon in most of the parts of India. See my post named What's Beyond This? to feel how India looks this time of the year :)

    Hi Bhavesh...thank you...this donkey was definitely beautiful & selfless.

    About the photo...yes, it's me in the photo. I took it a few months ago using the vanity mirror of our car...we were on our way to the supermarket. :)

    Thanks for the link to your post, I'll definitely check it out.

    Enjoy the rest of the week!
