The Difference Between A Donkey and A Wife

Cerita ini saya ambil dari buku yang saya suka baca, emh... this is spoof text, enjoy it ^^

Early in the morning nasreddin went to the backyard to take his donkey. He wanted to go to the market as early as possible so that he could sell a lot of wheat. To his surprise, the donkey was not in the stall. He run to his nearest neighbours to asked if they saw his donkey. But none had seen it. soon the people in the neighbourhood heard the news. They helped Nasreddin look for the donkey. They searched the entire garden and the nearest wood and hills. But they couldn't find it. There was only one hill left to search. They all went to the hill.

A man who walkked beside Nasreddin asked him, "Nasreddin, all of our neighbours have failed to find your donkey. But why do you look relaxed. Don't you worry at all?"-"So?"-"You shuld realize that you may not find your only donkey." Nasreddin answered calmly, "Do you see the hill we are going to? Nobody had gone there to look for my donkey. We'll go there and find it. if there is no donkey there, then I'll worry."

They arrived at the hill. The whole group searched for the lost donkey here and there but they couldn't find it. Nasreddin  sat down under the tree alone. He lokked far away, thinking something. The man who had talked to him before came and sat beside him. "Well, Nasreddin. I know you lose your only donkey. Life may be difficult without it. But, don't be too sad, brother," the man tried to cheer him up. "Do I look sad?"-"Ye, you look very sad. You looked much sadder than you did when your wife died." Nasreddin looked at his friend. "if only you remembered the day when my wife died, you would know the answer."-"I do, I remember the we, yur friends, helped you and accompanied you just like we do now."-"No, it's much different. At thet time you all tried to cheer me up by saying, 'Don't be sad our friend Nasreddin. We'll get you a new wife.' But now you see, nobody offers me any donkey to replace my lost one."
