A group of graduates, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor.
They talked about the present-day
1 topic-Happiness. But the conversation soon turned into complaints
about
2 in work and in life. To offer his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and
3 with a
large pot of coffee and different types of
4 -plastic, glass, crystal, some nice-looking, some plain-looking,
some expensive, some cheap-telling them to help
5 to the coffee.
6 all the students had a cup of coffee
in hand, the professor said, "If you
7 , you might find all the nice-looking, expensive cups are taken up,
with the plain and cheap ones
8 . While it is
9 for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the
source of your
10 and stress. In fact, the cup itself adds no
11 to the coffee. What all of you
12 wanted
was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups and were
13 each other's cups."
"Now
14 this: Life is the coffee and the jobs, money and position in
15 are the cups. They are just tools
to
16 and contain life, and the types of cups do not decide or
17 the quality of life we live. Sometimes,
focusing on the cup makes us
18 to enjoy the coffee itself. So, don't let the cups drive you. Enjoy the coffee
19 ."
The
20 people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.
