A group of adults, highly succeeded in their jobs, went to visit their old professor. Soon they began to1 the stress in work and life.

    The professor went to the kitchen and returned2a pot of coffee and all kinds of cups —crystal (水晶), glass, plastic; some nice looking, some simple looking; some 3some cheap. And he told them to help4to 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 5 leaving behind the simple and cheap ones. While it is

6 for you to take only the best for yourself, that is the root of your 7 and stress.

    You know that the cup itself adds no quality (品质) to the coffee8 you really wanted was coffee, not the cup9 you went for the best cups without thinking.

    Now consider this: Life is the coffee. The jobs, money and 10 in society are the cups. They are just11 to hold life, and the type of cup doesn't change the quality of our life. Sometimes, by 12 attention to the cup only, we fail to enjoy the coffee that God has 13 us. God offers us the coffee, not the cup. Please enjoy your coffee!”

    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make 14 of everything. Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak15 And leave the rest to the God.
