At a dark night, a man came to a lonely village. When he walked slowly, a yellow light suddenly 1 at the end of the road. It came from a 2 which was carried by a man. A villager near him said, “Here Blind Sun comes.”
“Blind?” the man said. “That’s too 3. A blind man has no idea of day and night, can’t 4 the beauty of nature, or even doesn’t know what the light is. Wasn’t he funny to carry a lantern?”
As the lantern was coming near, the yellow light moved gradually to the man. The man asked, “5, may I ask you whether you’re really blind?”
The blind man answered, “Yes, the moment I stepped into the world, I can’t see 6.”
The man asked, “In that case, 7 do you carry a lantern?”
The blind man smiled, “At night all the people without a light are just as blind 8 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 9.”
“For yourself? But there is no 10 to do that,” the man felt surprised again.
The blind man explained, “Were you ever knocked by others 11 the dark?”
The man nodded, “Yes, sometimes.”
The blind man said proudly, “Believe it or not, I 12 knocked anyone. Although I’m blind, I carry the lantern, not only to light for others, but to let others see me, 13 they won’t knock me.”
After hearing that, the man was lost in thought...
In fact, everyone has a lamp in himself. Light it actively not only for others, but also for yourself—Never put yourself in a dark 14. When you feel left out and find it hard to 15 well with others, are you ready to light your lamp?
