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

______ professor went to the kitchen and returned______a pot of coffee and all kinds of cups: crystal, glass, plastic; some nice looking, some plain looking; and the students noticed that some were expensive, some were 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______up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. Although______is normal for you to take only the best for yourselves, that is the root of your problem and stress. You know that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. And ______ you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, ______ you all went for the best cups.”

Now think about this: Life is the coffee, the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life, and the type of cup does not change the quality of our life. Sometimes, by paying ______only to the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee that God has provided us. God gave us the coffee, not the cups. Please enjoy your coffee!

The______people don’t have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything. Live simply. Love sincerely. Care deeply. Speak kindly .And leave the rest to God.
