One Myth about "COLLABORATION"
(ZHANG Melvin, 52374241)

Once upon a time, there were two huge mountains called Taihang and Wangwu, which sat between Old Man Yu's village and the nearest town. These two mountains block the villagers' way to the market in the town, which really annoyed them.

One day, Yu called together the villagers, suggesting,"How about trying our best to remove the huge mountains, to make our path to the market no more detour?" The villagers all agreed with Yu, and promised to collaborate with him and do whatever they can, while Yu's wife doubted,"How to settle the rocks you moved?" Old Man Yu thought for a second,"We can dump them into the sea."

A people living alongside the river, called Zhi, sneered at Yu,"How foolish you are! You are too old to move even a little grass of the mountain, how it is possible to deal with monstrous  mountains?!"
Old Man Yu smiled, "You are right, but your vision is short. I can't finish it by myself alone, but I have villagers with me, they are my cooperators, and we have children who have children who will bear more children. As time goes on, I get stronger and the mountain grows weaker. Taihang and Wangwu will be moved."

The God of heaven heard about this and was deeply touched. He commands a Titan to move away the two mountains, so that Yu and the villagers could go to the nearest market with no more detour.

Such a myth tells us that no matter how hard the matter is, faith, partner, strong will and tutor are the essential elements of way to success.

/*In your blog, you should have (1) your names, pictures of yourselves, and brief
introductions of your individual identities (2) an introduction to your group name that
explains why and how your group chooses the particular group name, (3) your group
goals for this class in relation to work and life, (4) what excites your group most about
the weekly topics, (5) what additional topics your group would like to learn in this
class, and (6) one myth you have about “COLLABORATION” that wants
confirmation or disconfirmation.*/

/*For your individual account, use whatever name you like, but it should contain your
student ID (or I will not be able to reward you for your discretionary effort). This
means you’re anonymous, except to me. I have a very high threshold for tolerating
diversity and opinions. You may make whatever individual comments you like, so
long as you support yourself. We will practice making comments in class in the future.
We are all here to help each other learn.*/
