I met Doron at breakfast and told him I've had an awakening kind of experience and here's his story. The best is to hear the story teller himself, but hey the next best is this!
There was a farmer and his wife who bought a donkey to help them on the farm. They loved Donney, fed it, cleaned it and did all that good masters do. Donney was happy and perfect in all ways except work. They just could not get him to work!
After all the failed attempts they came to the town's Donkey Expert. He agreed to help on the condition that the couple would not get involved at all and remain quiet and at a distance at all times. This was very hard for the couple but they relented as they were at wits end.
DE took up a stone, aimed at Donney and threw it at him. No sweat, Donney was cool and remained non-chalant. DE carried a larger stone - the size of Donney's nose and aimed again. The farmer and his wife were shocked. How could DE do such a thing? But they agreed not to interfere so they held their breath and each other. DE was right on target but hey, Donney was fine ... he was a strong animal.
For a while the couple wondered where DE went. Then to their horror, they saw him up a cliff and was pushing a huge, gigantic rock over where Donney was. This would be the death of their darling Donney and they were in tears. Yes the rock came down and down went Donney.
It took three days for Donney to get on his feet and when he did, he was not recognizable! He went straight to work and was able to accomplish the tasks of 3 donkeys!
"Why DE? What is your secret?" the farmers asked.
"Well ... before you tell him anything, you just need to get his attention."
