How can I be happy?

我如何快乐?

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。
