In the theme is referred to the donkey or donkey. An extremely docile and complacent animal.

The donkey or donkey is a pet of the family of equidae. Of African origin their wild ancestors were domesticated for the first time at the beginning of the 5th millennium BC. C., that is to say that it takes approximately 5,000 years helping the human being in the hard task of transporting heavy loads.

This animal is able to transport 20% and 30% of its body weight, it is also used to plow the land to prepare for planting. It can be found in many countries of the world and today is very helpful to transport the load of farmers where it is difficult for all-terrain vehicles to arrive.

In the Bible, the donkey appears as the animal of the time of work and peace,
> Balaam's donkey (Numbers 22-24)
When the king of Moab fears to be invaded by Israel, he sends for the prophet Balaam to curse the people. The prophet is warned in dreams so that he does not respond to this request. Finally, it is his own donkey that sees the angel of God and tells the prophet about the inconvenience of doing that path proposed by the king. Before the stubbornness of Balaam, God makes the donkey speak to give his message.
 Then Yahweh opened the donkey's mouth, and she said to Balaam, "What did I do to you to make three bullets like that?" "You're making fun of me!" Replied Balaam. If I had a sword in my hand, I would kill you right now. " The donkey replied: "Am I not your donkey, the one you have always ridden to this day? Do I usually treat you like that? " He answered: "No".
Yahweh opened Balaam's eyes, and he saw the Angel of the Lord standing on the road, with the sword unsheathed in his hand; He bowed and adored him with his face on the ground. 32 The Angel of the Lord said to him, "Why have you hit your donkey three times? I was the one who blocked your way, because your trip disgusts me. 33 She saw me and turned away from me three times. She did very well to fall apart, because otherwise I would have killed you, while I would have left her alive. " 34 Balaam said to the Angel of the Lord: "I have sinned, because I did not know that you were in front of me on the road. If this displeases you, right now I return. " 35 The Angel of the Lord replied to Balaam: "Go with these men, but you will only say what I say." And Balaam went with the chiefs that Balak had sent him.
This popular narrative wants to show on the one hand that sometimes human beings are "more foolish than a donkey" when we do not see the signs that He puts us, signs that the same donkey knew how to interpret and the prophet did not. Furthermore, by making the donkey speak, he tells us that God can use any instrument, even an animal considered stubborn and stupid, to give his message.

Today there are many prejudices about the donkey, to the point that they have turned his name into an insult, they make cruel jokes about him, but in reality they are very intelligent, their movements are slow and it seems that they are never in a hurry, but when they are Give the opportunity, they prove to be very smart and able to solve complicated problems just with your help.
