他將裝滿水果的籃子放在靠近樹的地方，並同時對他們說，誰要是能第一個跑到樹下就可以贏得所有甜美可口的水果吃。
當他一開始說跑的時候，只見孩子們同時牽起彼此的手一起跑，然後一起坐下來分享所有的果實。
這位人類學家好奇問他們說為何要一起跑呢? 當你自己個人可以有機會獨享的時候...
孩子回答說:
"UBUNTU，如果其他人悲傷的話，我們之中任何一個人怎能快樂地起來?"
'UBUNTU'這個字在科薩(Xhosa)文化中是"一切如是 " I am because we are的意思!!
An anthropologist proposed a game to the kids in an African tribe. He put a basket full of fruit near a tree and told the kids that who ever got there first won the sweet fruits. When he told them to run they all took each others hands and ran together, then sat together enjoying their treats. When he asked them why they had run like that as one could have had all the fruits for himself they said: ''UBUNTU, how can one of us be happy if all the other ones are sad?''
'UBUNTU' in the Xhosa culture means: "I am because we are"
Happy Earth Day!
