My husband sent me a link to this while I was at work and everyone wondered why I was crying. Very heart-rending pictures. :crying::crying::crying:

Ok, maybe I'm a wimp. I cry at anything. But the pictures are very touching.

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).
