Once in a small village, there lived a wise old farmer. He was respected by everyone for his hard work and wisdom. The farmer had three sons, who often quarreled and couldn't stand each other's presence. Each one had his own idea of how to run the farm, leading to frequent disagreements.

As the farmer grew older, he became concerned about the future of his farm. One day, he called his sons to his bedside as he wasn't feeling well. He gave each of them a stick and asked them to break it. Each son easily snapped his stick into two.

The farmer then gave them a bundle of sticks tied together and asked them to break it. They tried their best but could not break the bundle.

The father told them, “My sons, you see when the sticks are together, they are unbreakable. But when separate, they can be easily broken. This is how it must be for you three brothers. Stay united like the bundle of sticks, and you will overcome any obstacle. Divided, your strength will be gone.”

With tears in their eyes, the sons realized the wisdom in their father's words. They promised to put aside their differences and work together. Before long, the farm prospered like never before, and the three brothers became the best of friends, supporting and helping each other in every endeavor.

The farmer passed away, but the legacy of his wisdom lived on through his sons, who cherished it forever.
