 Together we stand strong, divided we fall.
A farmer, whose corn always took the first prize in the crops exhibition, had 
the habit of sharing his best corn seeds with all the farmers in the 
neighbourhood.
When asked why, he said, "The wind carries pollen from one field to 
another If my neighbours grow inferior corn, the cross pollination may 
bring down quality of my seeds. So, I must share my seeds, so that we can 
get best corn together."
To understand the importance of working in harmony.
To explore the joy of sharing, and strive towards a common goal.
