A farmer had a cluster of beautiful bamboo trees. One day he stood
before the tallest one and said, "My friend, I need you." "Sir," said the bamboo,
"Use me in any way you wish, I am ready." Then the gardener's voice became
serious and he said, "In order to use you, I've got to split you in half." Then the
bamboo reacted, "Split me" Oh, no... I'm the nicest bamboo in this garden.
Use me in any way you wish, but please don't split me in half."
"Well," said the gardener, "if I can't split you, I can't use you." The bamboo
went silent. Then it bowed its head and said, "Okay. If the only way you can
