STORY: The Farmer and his Sons An elderly farmer had several sons. He loved his children very much, yet they argued all the time. They couldn’t agree on anything, and they didn’t know how to work together. Because of this, the work that needed to be done on the farm didn’t get done. Animals didn’t get fed, vegetables didn’t get picked, the cows got through the fence because there was a hole in it, and so on. The farmer was worried, so he made a plan to give his sons a lesson and show them how they needed to “stick” together. One day, he told them to bring him a bundle of sticks very tightly tied together. When they had done so, he placed the bundle into the hands of
each of them in succession, and ordered his sons to break the bundle in pieces. They tried with all their strength, but were not able to do it. He next opened the bundle, took the sticks separately, one by one, and again put them into his sons' hands, upon which they broke the sticks easily. He then said, "My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this bundle, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies. But if you are divided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks."
