One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally he decided the animal was old and the well needed to be covered up anyway, it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey. So he invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. They all began to shovel dirt into the well.
一天一个农民的驴掉进了井里，它可怜巴巴地叫了几个小时，农民努力地想办法。最终他决定反正这头驴老了，井也需要填上，这头驴不值得救了。他就找来所有邻居帮他，他们开始往井里填土。
At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement, he quieted down. A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well and was astonished at what he saw.
刚开始，驴明白怎么回事就惊恐地大叫，后来大家惊讶地发现它安静了。几铲土下去之后，农民朝井下看，吓了一跳。
With every shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey 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 trotted off!
每铲土落在背上时驴都会把土抖掉，踩上去。很快大家惊讶地发现驴到了井边上跑了！
Moral: Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up.
道理：“生活会朝你身上扔土，扔各种土。从井中脱困的方法就是把土抖掉，然后踩上去。”
Each of our troubles is a stepping stone. We can get out of the deepest wells just by not stopping, never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up!
我们遇到的每个困难都是垫脚石，只要不停下、永远不放弃，我们就能从最深的井里脱困！把土抖掉，然后踩上去。

There was an old wise cat and a small kitten in an alleyway. The old cat saw the kitten chasing its tail and asked, “Why are you chasing your tail?”
在一条小巷有一只聪明的老猫和一只小猫，老猫看见小猫追自己的尾巴，问道：“你为什么追自己的尾巴？”
To it the kitten replied, “I’ve been attending cat philosophy school and I have learned that the most important thing for a cat is happiness, and that happiness is located in my tail. Therefore, I am chasing it: and when I catch it, I shall have happiness forever.
”小猫听了回答：“我上猫咪哲学学校，学到了对一只猫来说最重要的是幸福，而幸福就在我的尾巴上。所以我在追幸福：一旦我抓住了幸福，就能永远幸福了。”
Laughing, the wise old cat replied, “My son, I wasn’t lucky enough to go to cat philosophy school, but as I’ve gone through life, I too have realized that the most important thing for a cat is happiness, and indeed that it is located in my tail. The difference I’ve found though is that whenever I chase after it, it keeps running away from me, but when I go about my business and live my life, it just seems to follow after me wherever I go.
”聪明的老猫大笑着回答：“我的孩子，我没你那么幸运能上猫咪哲学学校，但我经历过生活，我也知道对一只猫来说最重要的是幸福，其实它就在我的尾巴上。然而我发现不同的是，我追它的时候它总会跑掉，但我忙自己的事、过自己生活的时候，好像无论我去哪儿它都会跟着我。”
