Traveling with Companions

Fruits gathered to hold a discussion among themselves.  They wanted to discover the reason why no fruit but the grape contains the juice from which the finest wines are made.
“Her drink is famous throughout the world and exquisitely pleasing to man’s taste,” they declared.  “Why is she so more worthy than we to be blessed with this gift from God?”
A cluster of grapes hanging nearby heard the complaint and replied, “All of you grow individually and produce you fruits independently, but we grapes grow together in bunches and are faithful to each other.  For that reason our substance is rich and capable of imparting such distinctive taste and fragrance to our wines.”

Moral: In union there is strength.

Travel the world with other passengers. Besides, it makes the journey much more interesting.

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
