Abstract:
There is an old drawing I used to see on the noticeboard of our local cooperative. It depicted two cows tethered to either end of a short rope with each pulling, to no avail, in the opposite direction in a bid to reach a patch of grass that was closest to it. After several unsuccessful attempts, they realised the futility of that and that it would be easier to go to one side and eat the grass together and then move to the other. Such is the power of cooperation—the ability to unite to accomplish a mission.
