A young man returned at a dark night because his wife was seriously ill. When he came to 31 lonely village, a yellow light suddenly appeared at the end of the road. When he came a little nearer, he found a blind man 32 a lantern.
The young man thought, “That’s too strange. A blind man has no idea of day and night, can’t enjoy the beauty of nature 33 even doesn’t know what the light is. Wasn’t he funny to carry a lantern?” So he came up to ask, “Excuse me, are you really blind?”
The blind man answered, “Yes. The moment I stepped into the world, I was not able to see 34 .”
The man asked, “In that case, 35 do you carry a lantern?” The blind man smiled, “At night all the people without light are just as blind as me, so I light a lantern.”
The man said, “I see, you light for others.”
But the blind man said, “No, I do it for 36 .”
The man felt surprised again.
The blind man explained, “Were you ever knocked by others 37 of the dark?”
The man nodded, “Yes, sometimes.”
The blind man said 38 , “Believe it or not. I never knocked anyone. 39 I’m blind, I carry the lantern. I do it not only for others, but let others see me, so they won’t knock me.”
In fact, in our real life everyone 40 a lamp in himself. Don’t put yourself in a dark situation.
