There was an old man with three sons. These sons used to fight with each other. The old man made various attempts to unite his sons but failed miserably. The old man got sick after some months and still, the sons were fighting with each other. The old man decided to teach his sons an important life lesson. He gathered his sons and gave them a bundle of sticks. He asked each of them to break the stick and the winner would have got the reward. Each son easily broke the stick given to them and asked for their reward. The old man says that it is not over yet. They had to break the bundle of the stick and whoever broke it would receive the reward. Each of the sons tried to break the bundle but they failed. The father then said that it was easy to break one individual but not a united group. The old man told them that if they remained united, nobody could cause them harm but if they kept fighting each other, anyone could take advantage of it.
Moral: There is strength in unity.
