Take Part in Disaster Relief
“An old man on his deathbed summoned his sons to give them some parting advice. He ordered his servants to bring in a bundle of sticks, and said to his eldest son, “Break it.” The son strained and strained, but with all his efforts was unable to break the bundle. The other sons also tried, but none was successful. “Untie the bundle,” said the father, “and each of you take a stick.” When they had done so, he called out to them: “Now, break,” and each stick was easily broken. “You see,” said their father. “Union gives strength.” (Adapted from Aesop's Fables, www.aesops-fables.org.uk)....
