If I am a donkey


If I am a donkey, would I ever complain of the load of work?

Would I ever bother myself thinking of where I came from… where I am going to… what is coming next… what shall I want to achieve… or ever get concerned of how I look… what I have and what I have not?

Does being a donkey mean that I would have a peace of mind… forgetting about the past, and not bother looking in the future… just living my current moment enjoying my laziness under the sun?

or

Would I look at human beings… wonder about how much a mess they put themselves concerning about every tiny aspect of their lives… take a deep breath and… sight

  2. Do we really want to be donkeys with no choice at all but have the peace of mind every man is looking for , or do we rather want to be humans living a stressful life but having the free dome of choice .I will go with b being a human

  3. Laylow, abdullah, You both would choose to be human based on your preference of having a free will.But Honestly, do we have a true free will? We may are smarter than other animals, but we dont have any free wills more than they have.

  4. Those traits of a donkey are excellent ones that we can learn from and adopt. I especially like your last sentence “wonder about how much a mess they put themselves concerning about every tiny aspect of their lives” … I mean when will humans look at the big picture and see how much they are contributing to their own happiness/missery.

  5. Moey, mmm, might be? 🙂Sari, You are totally right, maybe the one thing humans dont consider to be a choice while it can be one is their own happiness. Saad, who knows? 😛
