The Hand Learned Teamwork That Day

The hand proudly declared he is greater than all the other parts of the body. The leg humbly smiled in acknowledging the statement he made. The other parts of the body also kept quiet.

The hand held out his arms, showing off the muscles going up and down. Then the next moment they heard a loud noise coming towards them. The hand in an instance turned pale and felt he was moving.

The loud noise was actually a dog chasing after them. He then saw the pair of legs were moving too which was why he was moved along with them. The eyes noticed that there was a stick along the path and signaled to the hand to pick it up.

Then the hand quickly picked it up and the whole body turned to face the ferocious dog. The mouth and tongue shouted with the most ferocious scream ever heard. The hands and the body faced the attacking foe in courageous confrontation.

When the dog noticed the sudden change of atmosphere and sensed the rising heat was greater than its anger, it turned and ran.

A great sense of relief flowed the entire body and they all jumped up in jubilation. The hands once more fast in declaration and thanked everybody for the great teamwork. He now realized that each part is not greater than the other, but just each part works together for the greater good.

The leg and the other parts smiled in agreement.
