Compassion for yourself translates into compassion for others.

Who's to Blame?
Contributed by Mr.Bhagavan P.S in Bisulu-Belandingalu group.

One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well.
The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried in vain to figure out what to do.Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway and it just wasn't worth it to save the donkey.He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him.They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well.At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly.Then, to everyone's dismay there was total silence in the well!
A few shovel loads later, the farmer looked down the well.He was astonished at what he saw.With each shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing.He would shake it off and take a step up.As the farmer's neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal,he would shake it off and take a step up.Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and happily trotted off!
MORAL:"A quitter will never succeed and the winner will never quit".
"Our body and mind has all the solutions for all the human problems."We should use them,Instead of expecting help from people and God, lets request God to energise us to meet the challenge .
