00:00The Donkeys Burden
00:01A merchant owned a donkey and a horse.
00:06Every day he would load his goods on the backs of both the animals
00:11and take them to the market to sell.
00:14One hot morning, the merchant had only a small amount of goods to carry.
00:21He made one large bundle of the goods and loaded it onto the donkey's back.
00:27Then he took his horse along and all the three left for the market.
00:35As they walked on, the donkey felt tired carrying the heavy load.
00:41So he went near the horse and said,
00:44Friend, I am getting tired. Will you carry half the load for me?
00:50No way, the horse said.
00:52It's your load, so you must carry it on your own.
00:57I won't share it.
00:59The donkey did not comment back.
01:01It was nearing noon.
01:03The donkey could not bear the heat and the heavy load.
01:10So he fell to the ground and fainted.
01:14Soon he was foaming at the mouth.
01:16The merchant took the donkey's load and put all of it on the horse's back.
01:24The horse now had to carry the heavy goods.
01:28Then the horse realized how the poor donkey had suffered
01:32and the horse had to carry the goods all the way to the market on his own.
01:39Moral
01:40Sharing others' burden now will benefit us in the future.
