A Thought For the Day--Community

Wild geese always fly in a V formation and travel as a community. As each goose flaps its wings, it creates an 'up-lift' for the birds that follow.

People who share a common direction reach their destination more quickly and with less effort than those who travel alone. That's because they are traveling on the thrust of one another.

When a goose falls out of formation, it feels the drag and resistance of flying alone and promptly moves back into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird immediately in front of it.
