Every year during summer holidays,
Murley used to go for mountaineering(登山运
动) with his friends.
This year he also made
1 with his
friends on reaching place. A guide took them to
a famous mountaineering spot. On reaching,
Murley and his friends found that place was
2, which they didn't expect. A friend
complained, "What's fun in climbing here?"
"We have already come here, so what is the
use of regret(后悔)? Let's
3!" Replied
Murley.
All friends started
4 and reached the
top of the hill in no time. There were already
too many people there. Friends thought that
they would
5 there for three to four hours
and then go back. Just then, Murley
6 a
peak in front and said, "Wait, wait, look at that
peak. Only a handful of people are seen there.
It would be fun. Why don't we go there?" One
of his friends said, "There, but I have heard
about that hill. The path to that hill is very
7, and only a few lucky people reach
there." Some people standing next to them
said, "Brother, if it was so easy to go there,
why we all would have come here?" But Murley
didn't listen to
8 and went alone towards
the top. After three hours, he was on top of
that hill. On reaching there, people already
present
9 him. Murley was also happy to
reach there.

he could enjoy beauty of
nature in peace.
On way back, Murley realized that it was
not so difficult to reach here. If one who can
reach that crowded peak works
11, he can
also reach this peak. Then why is it that there
are hundreds of people there but only handful of
people here? Most of people become happy with
what they get
12. They do not try their
best to get more than this. They
13 not
having more but losing.
It is
14 to our life. If now you have
been holding yourself back from taking next big
step, then do it. Because all it takes is a little
more effort to
15 it. A little more courage
can take you out of crowd and join those handful
of people whose world calls lucky.
