A group of graduates, successful in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about   36  in work and life.
Before offering his guests   37 , the professor went to the kitchen and   38  with a large pot of coffee and a variety of cups -- porcelain（瓷）, plastic, glass, crystal, some   39  and cheap, some exquisite（精致的）and   40 -- telling them to help themselves to the coffee.
When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: “If you   41 , all the nice-looking expensive cups were   42  up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is   __43 for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the   44  of your problems and stress. Be assured that the cup itself   45  no quality to the coffee. In most cases   46  is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you   47  wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously   48  for the best cups... And then you began eyeing each other’s cups.
Now consider this:   49  is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to   50  life, and the type of cup we have does not define（規(guī)定）, nor change the   51  of life we live. Sometimes, by   52  only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has offered us.
God brews（釀造）the coffee, not the cups. Enjoy your coffee!
“The   53  people don’t have the best of everything: They just   54  the best of everything.”
Live simply. Love   55 . Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.
