ONE MORE STEP
An explorer name Fridtjof Nansen was lost with one companion in the Arctic wastes. By miscalculation they ran out of all their supplies. They ate their dogs, the dog’s harnesses, the whale oil for their lamps. Nansen’s companion gave up and lay down to die. But Nansen did not give up. He told himself, “I can take one step more.” As he plodded heavily through the bitter cold, step after step, suddenly across an ice hill he stumbled upon an American expedition that had been sent out to find him. Most of us are not going to be lost in Arctic Wastes, but all of us, to get wherever we want to go, have to take steps, and we have to have the courage to keep on taking them.
