A heart warming story from Africa:
The motivation behind the Ubuntu culture......
An Anthropologist proposed a game to the African tribal children.....
He placed a basket of sweets near a tree and made the children stand 100metres away. Then announced that whoever reaches first would get all the sweets in the basket.
When he said 'ready, steady, go!....
Do you know what these children did? They held each other's hand, ran together towards the tree, divided the sweets equally among themselves and enjoyed it.
When the anthropologist asked them why they did so, they answered 'ubuntu'.which meant - " how can one happy when the others are sad?'
Ubuntu in their language means - ' I am because we are !
A strong message for all generations. Let all of us always have this attitude and spread happiness wherever we go let us strive to have an Ubuntu life.
I AM BECAUSE WE ARE
Wonderful Teaching for us all to emulate.
