The Unbreakable Bond of Friendship The picture of three children, each from seemingly different cultural backgrounds, standing hand in hand in a lush green park evokes a profound narrative about friendship, diversity, and unity. This image not only captures a moment of innocent camaraderie but also serves as a poignant reminder of how friendship transcends boundaries, be it cultural, racial, or social. In the heart of Maplewood Park, a place brimming with the laughter of children and the gentle whisper of the wind through the trees, there exists a bond formed between Ayesha, Sophie, and Juan. Ayesha, with her long, flowing hair and bright blue t-shirt, is a gentle soul with a passion for nature. Sophie, in her vibrant yellow shirt adorned with cartoon characters, exudes cheerfulness and often takes the lead in their little adventures. Juan, wearing a striped shirt, is the thinker among the trio, always curious, always questioning. One sunny afternoon, as they played in their favourite part of the park, the three friends decided to embark on a "treasure hunt," a game they invented where they would look for unique leaves, stones, and anything interesting or unusual that the park had to offer. This particular day, however, they decided the greatest treasure would be to find the "Heart of the Park," a mythical tree said to be the oldest and wisest in the park, according to local legend. Their quest was not just a journey across the park but a journey into each other's lives. As they wandered, they shared stories from their diverse backgrounds. Ayesha spoke of her family's traditions from India, Sophie described her favourite German fairy tales, and Juan recounted his grandmother's tales from Mexico. This exchange not only deepened their bond but also enriched their understanding of the world around them. After hours of searching, they stumbled upon a grand old oak tree, its branches sprawling majestically. Whether it was truly the "Heart of the Park" didn't matter, for they had discovered something far more valuable—each other's friendship and the realization that diversity is a treasure in itself. This image and the story it inspires are a testament to the fact that children, with their unprejudiced minds and boundless hearts, can teach adults the fundamental values of friendship, diversity, and unity. In their simple, playful day at the park, Ayesha, Sophie, and Juan remind us all that while our differences make us unique, our shared human experiences bring us together. |

Summarizing is to briefly sum up the various points from the notes made from the below passage.
The Sherpas were nomadic people who first migrated from Tibet approximately 600 years ago, through the Nangpa La pass and settled in the Solukhumbu District, Nepal. These nomadic people then gradually moved westward along salt trade routes. During 14th century, Sherpa ancestors migrated from Kham. The group of people from the Kham region, east of Tibet, was called “Shyar Khamba”. The inhabitants of Shyar Khamba, were called Sherpa. Sherpa migrants travelled through Ü and Tsang, before crossing the Himalayas. According to Sherpa oral history, four groups migrated out of Solukhumbu at different times, giving rise to the four fundamental Sherpa clans: Minyagpa, Thimmi, Sertawa and Chawa. These four groups have since split into the more than 20 different clans that exist today.
Sherpas had little contact with the world beyond the mountains and they spoke their own language. AngDawa, a 76-year-old former mountaineer recalled “My first expedition was to Makalu [the world’s fifth highest mountain] with Sir Edmund Hillary’’. We were not allowed to go to the top. We wore leather boots that got really heavy when wet, and we only got a little salary, but we danced the Sherpa dance, and we were able to buy firewood and make campfires, and we spent a lot of the time dancing and singing and drinking. Today Sherpas get good pay and good equipment, but they don’t have good entertainment. My one regret is that I never got to the top of Everest. I got to the South Summit, but I never got a chance to go for the top.
The transformation began when the Sherpa Tenzing Norgay and the New Zealander Edmund Hillary scaled Everest in 1953. Edmund Hillary took efforts to build schools and health clinics to raise the living standards of the Sherpas. Thus life in Khumbu improved due to the efforts taken by Edmund Hillary and hence he was known as ‘Sherpa King’.
Sherpas working on the Everest generally tend to perish one by one, casualties of crevasse falls, avalanches, and altitude sickness. Some have simply disappeared on the mountain, never to be seen again. Apart from the bad seasons in 1922, 1970 and 2014 they do not die en masse. Sherpas carry the heaviest loads and pay the highest prices on the world’s tallest mountain. In some ways, Sherpas have benefited from the commercialization of the Everest more than any group, earning income from thousands of climbers and trekkers drawn to the mountain. While interest in climbing Everest grew gradually over the decades after the first ascent, it wasn’t until the 1990s that the economic motives of commercial guiding on Everest began. This leads to eclipse the amateur impetus of traditional mountaineering. Climbers looked after each other for the love of adventure and “the brotherhood of the rope” now are tending to mountain businesses. Sherpas have taken up jobs as guides to look after clients for a salary. Commercial guiding agencies promised any reasonably fit person a shot at Everest.
