CO-OPERATION

I suddenly dawned upon this in the midst of LEVEL EXPERIENCE.
I used to wonder, what is the difference between Teamwork and Cooperation? Therefore I did not really give a huge fuss and ask for the change over the SCAR to STAR. Inevitably, STAR sounds nice (Thought CARS could be good from ACRS) compared to SCAR.

However, I just realised it may have been a mistake to do so. I would rather SCAR, or ACRS.

Co-operation has a vital part to play in all parts of our life. Teamwork is just present and needed in teams. Of course its important. For teamwork to work, you need cooperation. However, teamwork does not apply when you are to work with people you do not know for a short period of time.

Havoc comes when people do not cooperate. I tell you there are no more lots in the carpark, you do not cooperate and squeeze your way through. I tell you to quiet, you ignore and do not cooperate becos u do not know the importance of it. Imagine this: If the world is coming to an end, and somebody is to given an announcement about which direction to go, what to do, who does what. But the people do not cooperate. They simply say: I dont want to do this, let me die, or why is he able to do that while I have to do this. All these require cooperation to work, if not, we will all die in this situation.

When people do not cooperate, it can be very chaotic. For example, if u see in movies like "The Day After Tomorrow", you can see this large group of people walking of on their own, unwilligly to cooperate with the other smaller group which manages to survive in the end. Sometimes, listening and cooperating simply helps a lot.

If everyone can just cooperate, life would be much simpler for everyone else, especially the leaders, like in class, if u dont cooperate, then things can never be done. You have to learn to obey and just accept certain ways of doing things, and not be so fussed over little things. You can be unhappy over it, but if you could cooperate, there would at least be progress. "Would you like to make all the decisions instead?" "It is not easy you know? Simply just fulfilling everyone's needs, its clearly impossible, because no minds think the same. Even great minds think alike. Every great mind still has their own way of doing things.

I realise lesser and lesser cooperation can be seen in the world today. Be it lesser education, or yes there is education but lesser importance, I really dont know. I just hope that more people could see the importance of this, and CO-OPERATE.
