November 30, 2009 The Donkey Carrying Salt
On a summer’s day, was a donkey walking in the mountains. Donkey was carrying a few sacks of salt on his back. The bag is very heavy, while the sun shines in the heat.
“Oh hot. Like I had no strength to walk again,” said the donkey.
Then he saw a river.
“Ah, there was a river! I better stop for a while,” said the donkey with joy.
Without thinking, he went into the river and byuur! Donkey slipped and fell. He tried to stand again, but to no avail.
He is trying to stand. Strangely, the longer was in the water, he felt the weight on his back getting lighter. Eventually the donkey could stand on his feet again.
“Oh dear, salts out!” master said angrily.
“Oh, I’m sorry! Did salt dissolved in water?” said the donkey.

A few days later, the donkey got another job to bring the salt. Like usual, he had to walk through the mountains with his master.
“Soon there will be in front of the river there,” said the donkey in the liver.
When he walked across the river, mule threw himself on purpose. Byuuur!. Of course there is salt in his back became soluble in water. The load becomes lighter.
“Great! It’s so soft!” donkey said lightly.
However, knowing the ass doing it deliberately master became angry.
“You lazy ass!” master said grimly.
The next day, the donkey got a job with cotton. Once again, he walked with his master through the mountains.
When he reached the river, again with the ass dropped deliberately. Byuuur! But what happened? Load becomes heavy. Apparently, the cotton absorbs water and becomes heavy as stone.
