Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.

兩 個 人 總 比 一 個 人 好 、 因 為 二 人 勞 碌 同 得 美 好 的 果 效 。

For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.

若 是 跌 倒 、 這 人 可 以 扶 起 他 的 同 伴 ． 若 是 孤 身 跌 倒 、 沒 有 別 人 扶 起 他 來 、 這 人 就 有 禍 了 。

There are advantages to cooperating with others. Life is designed not for isolation, but companionship; not for loneliness, but intimacy. Some people prefer isolation because they feel they cannot trust anyone. We are not here on earth to serve ourselves, however, but to serve God and others. Do not isolate yourself from others and “go it alone”. Seek companionship and be a team member. Amen.
