Hey, Hey, Hey Esplanade family!
Grab a chair and a cup of your favorite beverage while I chew the fat with you.
The other day I had three small children over at my house and, as usual, the two older ones wanted to chat about something and then got into a small argument about whatever they were talking about.
I said, “you guys have to learn to work together and cooperate with each other and not argue”. They wanted to know what the word cooperate means, so I explained to them the meaning of COOPERATE, CORPORATION AND CO-OP. I said, “you guys live in a Co-Op where the shareholders form a corporation to cooperate with each other for the betterment of the development they live in”. Believe it or not, they understood. It is a shame that some adults don’t get it.
Now sip on that drink real slow and read this again until you “GET IT”.
If I don’t have to explain anything else to children, then I don’t have to explain anything else to you. Work together for the betterment of our development before someone takes it from us.
