When I was young I loved taking part in high school musicals.I loved to   36   in front of hundreds of people.In one production, I auditioned(試音)like  37   else. My music teacher was   38  that I would get a particular part in the music drama. The part I thought I had was a   39 lead who sang some of the most beautiful love songs.
But one day the show director pulled me aside. I was   40 to be offered the leading role. To my disappointment, he said, “Bob, I found a boy with an excellent voice. I need to give the   41 to him.”
From that moment on I began hating music class. I  42 that I didn’t like what we were singing. My music teacher didn’t know why. She   43 me in front of the class and told me I had changed. She didn’t know what I had been told. But when they  44 the finalists, I was given a  45 role. For some time my pride was  46 with having to do something I didn’t think I should be doing. But I did it. The minor role I had   47 to be much more fun than I had expected. My performance even   48 my brother who was also in the audience.
Life is really like a   49 and although we do not audition for the role, each of us is   50 by the director to play a certain part in it. The  51 is that we sometimes don’t like the part we are given. Like me in high school I became   52  -–if I couldn’t be the lead, I wouldn’t show up for rehearsal(彩排).
Then we wonder why we feel so   53 . Sometimes we don’t even feel like we are a part of the “Big Show. ” Everyone does indeed have a role. Some are in front of the curtain, some are behind, but all are  54 for the show to go on. All   55 to success no matter how minor the part is.

A Strange Greeting, a True Feeling Last week I was invited to a doctor’s meeting at the Ruth hospital for incurables.

Albert Einstein said, “In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity.” Once __41 __, such opportunities are like valuable diamonds hidden in the sand.
Several years ago, I spoke at a school about how we were surrounded by “___42___  ” if we could only recognize them. A man stopped by to see me, and I remembered him as somebody who had suffered through a(n) ___43___ divorce (離婚) and was examining what was most important to him. He took a small ___44___ out of his pocket. Here is what he said to me that day.
“I ___45___ on this stone when I was leaving church last Sunday. You had spoken about  ___46___ opportunities—diamonds. I put the stone in my ___47___ to remind me to look for those “diamonds” that I need. I have been trying to sell my business . On Monday morning, a man who seemed interested in ___48___ some of my stock (股票) stopped by. I thought, ‘Here’s my diamond—don’t let it ___49___!’ I sold the entire stock to him by noon. Now my next diamond is to find a new ___50___  !”
Not long afterward, he did find a new and better job. From then on, he decided to keep his stone with him all the time as a ___51___ to look for “diamonds” as he dug through the ___52___ of life.
Richard DeVos is right when he points out. “This is an exciting world. It is filled with opportunities. Great moments wait around every corner.” Those moments are diamonds that,   ___53___ left unrecognized, will be forever lost.
Are you looking for “diamonds” every day? If not, you may ___54___ pass them by! Perhaps there is a diamond of opportunity hidden in the difficulty you’re ___55___ now.

We often talk about ourselves as if we have permanent genetic defects (缺陷) that can never be changed. “I’m impatient.” “I’m always behind.” “I always put things   31 !” You’ve surely heard them. Maybe you’ve used them to describe   32 .
These comments may come from stories about us that have been   33  for years—often from   34  childhood. These stories may have no   35  in fact. But they can set low expectations for us. As a child, my mother said to me, “Marshall, you have no mechanical skills, and you will never have any mechanical skills for the rest of your life.” How did these expectations  36  my development? I was never   37  to work on cars or be around   38 . When I was 18, I took the US Army’s Mechanical Aptitude Test. My scores were in the bottom for the entire nation!
Six years later,   39 , I was at California University, working on my doctor’s degree. One of my professors, Dr. Bob Tannbaum, asked me to write down things I did well and things I couldn’t do. On the positive side, I   40  down, “research, writing, analysis, and speaking.” On the   41  side, I wrote, “I have no mechanical skills.”
Bob asked me how I knew I had no mechanical skills. I explained my life   42  and told him about my   43  performance on the Army test. Bob then asked, “  44  is it that you can solve   45  mathematical problems, but you can’t solve simple mechanical problems?”
Suddenly I realized that I didn’t  46  from some sort of genetic defect. I was just living out expectations that I had chosen to  47 . At that point, it wasn’t just my family and friends who had been  48  my belief that I was mechanically hopeless. And it wasn’t just the Army test, either. I was the one who kept telling myself, “You can’t do this!” I realized that as long as I kept saying that, it was going to remain true.   49  , if we don’t treat ourselves as if we have incurable genetic defects, we can do well in almost   50  we choose.
