WORLD DONKEY DAY MAY 8 🌎
HUG a Donkey(s) when you can on this day and every day!
Tomorrow and every day we should celebrate Donkeys and Mules, the world hardest working Animals. Donkeys and Mules are a Blessing 💞 ~ Ariane
May first is International Workers’ Day Worldwide (except for the US and Canada) to remind humanity of the value of those among us who work hard. A separate day seemed to be necessary to remind humanity of the Animal workers among us, who work just as hard as the human workers they usually help, and who suffer from an even lower value. So therefore a week later May 8th, we celebrate Donkeys and Mules.
For more than 6000 years DONKEYS have been carrying and pulling loads, turning wheels and generally laboring away to extend the work of humans. More recently they have been joined by horses, camels, elephants and oxen, but even today, all over the world where resources are scarce and speed is less important, Donkeys are still the main providers of such work.
Give them a thought; give them some appreciation. If any are nearby, go give them a hug or a carrot!
