Перевести текст на (желательно на украинский) once upon a time there was a farmer who owned an old mule. the mule fell into the farm er’ s well. after carefully analysing the situation, the farmer decided that neither the mule nor the well was worth the trouble of saving. instead, he called his neighbours together, told them what had happened, and asked them to help bring dirt to bury the old mule in the well. when the old mule heard that, he was hysterical! but as the farmer and his neighbours started throwing dirt into the well, a thought struck the mule. he realized that he was able to shake the dirt o ff and step up! this was what he did. «shake it o ff and step shake it o ff and step shake it o ff and step up! » he repeated to encourage himself. no matter how distressing the situation seemed, the old mule fought panic and just kept right on shaking it o ff and stepping up. it wasn’ t long before the old mule, battered and exhausted, stepped triumphantly over the wall of that well! w hat seemed like it would bury him actually helped all because of the manner in which he handled his adversity. that’s life! if we face our problems and respond to them positively, and refuse to give in to panic, bitterness or self-pity, the problems that come alone to loury us usually have within them the potential to benefit us.
