“I hope it is someone like me.”
And now, a story of the Golden Rule in action.
My favorite part:
“While Mazur’s team was busy assisting Hall, two Italian climbers walked past them toward the summit. When asked to help, they claimed they did not understand English. On his return to base camp, Mazur discovered they did.
“‘I don’t know why they didn’t want to stop to help,” Mazur said. “I hope when I am there, in that state, and someone passes me … I hope it is someone like me.’”
