Inspiring Story: Growing Good Corn..
Please forward my mail to all your Friends



 There was a Nebraska farmer who grew award-winning corn.
Each year he entered his corn in the state fair
where it won a blue ribbon...

One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and
learned something interesting about how he grew it.
The reporter discovered that the farmer shared his
seed corn with his neighbors

How can you afford to share your best seed corn
with your neighbors when they are entering corn in competition
with yours each year?" the reporter asked.

Why sir," said the farmer, "didn't you know?
The wind picks up pollen from the ripening corn and swirls it
from field to field. If my neighbors grow inferior corn,
cross-pollination will steadily degrade
the quality of my corn. If I am to grow good corn,
I must help my neighbors grow good corn.

He is very much aware of the connectedness of life.
His corn cannot improve unless his neighbor's corn also improves

So it is in other dimensions. Those who choose
to be at peace must help their neighbors to be at peace.
Those who choose to live well must help others to live well,
for the value of a life is measured by the
lives it touches. And those who choose to be happy
must help others to find happiness for the welfare of each
is bound up with the welfare of all.

The lesson for each of us is this:
if we are to grow good corn, we must help our neighbors
grow good corn.
