A group of adults, highly succeeded in their jobs, went to visit their old professor. Soon they began to _ _ the stress in work and life.
The professor went to the kitchen and returned_ _a pot(壶) of coffee and all kinds of cups — crystal (水晶的), glass, plastic; some nice looking, some common looking; some_ _, some cheap. And he told them to help _ _ to the coffee.
When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said, “I’ve noticed that all the nice looking expensive cups were_ _, leaving behind the common and cheap ones. While it is_ _for you to take only the best for yourselves, that is the root(根源) of your _ _ and stress.
You know that the cup itself adds no quality (质量) to the coffee, _ _you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, _ _ you consciously went for the best cups.
Now consider this: Life is the coffee. The jobs, _ _ and position in society are the cups. They are just _ _to hold life, and the type of cup does not change the quality of our life. Sometimes, by only paying attention _ _the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee that God has _ _us. God offers us the coffee, not the cups. Please enjoy your coffee!”
The happiest people don’t have the best of everything. They just make _ _of everything.
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak _ _. And leave the rest to God.
