The key to happiness is how quickly you can get back your focus on what`s important.

——Anonymous

Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson in the back of a New York City taxi cab. Here`s what happened. I hopped in a taxi，and we took off for Grand Central Station. We were driving in the right lane when，all of a sudden，a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes，skidded，and missed the other car`s back end by just inches!

The driver of the other car，who almost caused a big accident，started yelling bad words at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean，he was friendly. So，I said，"Why did you just do that？This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital！"And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call "The Law of the Garbage Truck. "

Many people are like garbage （rubbish）trucks. They run around full of garbage，full of frustration， full of anger，and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up，they need a place to dump it. And if you let them，they`ll dump it on you. When someone wants to dump on you，don`t take it personally. You just smile，wave，wish them well，and move on. You`ll be happy with what you did.

I started thinking，how often do I led Garbage Trucks run right over me？And how often do I　take their garbage and spread it to other people at work，at home，or on the streets？It was that day I said，"I`m not going to do anymore. "

Successful people do not let Garbage Trucks take over their day. What about you？If you let more garbage trucks pass you by，you`ll be happier. Life`s too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So，Love the people who treat you right. Forget about the ones who don`t.

A wise man was visiting the Ganges, a river which flows through northern India, to take a bath. He found a group of family members on the   26  , shouting angrily at each other. He___27    his disciples(弟子), smiled and asked, “Why do people shout in    28   at each other ?” The disciples   29    for a while and one of them said, “ Because we   30__   our calm, we shout.” “But, why should you shout    31   the other person is just next to you ? You can as well tell him what you have to say in a(n)   32   manner,” asked the wise man. Some disciples gave some other answers, but none   33   the other disciples. Finally the wise man explained, “When two people are angry at each other, there is a distance between their   ___34   . To cover that distance they must shout to be able to 35   each other. The angrier they are, the louder they will have to shout to __36    that great distance. What   37__    when two people fall in love ? They don’t shout at each other but talk softly, because their hearts are very 38   . The distance between them is either nonexistent or very small.”
The wise man 39    , “When they love each other even more, they do not   __40   , but only whisper and they get even closer to each other. Finally they   41 need not whisper. They only look at each other and that’s   42  . That’s how close people are when they love each other.”
He looked at his disciples and said, “So, when you   43  , do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance each other more.   44   there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to 45  . You may end up becoming enemies, for instance.”

Today we tell about the expression “down to earth”．Down to earth means being open and honest．It is easy to deal with someone who is down to earth．Such people could be important members of society, but they do not consider themselves to be better than others who are less important．They do not let their importance “go to their heads.” Someone who lets something go to his head feels he is better than others．He has a “big head.”
A person who is filled with his own importance and pride is said to have “his nose in the air．”Often the person who has a big head and his nose in the air has no reason to feel better than others．
Americans use another expression that is similar in some ways to down to earth---“both feet on the ground.” Someone with both feet on the ground is a person with a good understanding of reality．She has what is called “common sense.” She does not allow her dreams to block her understanding of what is real．
The opposite kind of person is one who has his “head in the clouds.” Someone with his head in the clouds is a person whose mind is not on what is happening in real life．Such a person may be called a “daydreamen.”
The person who is down to earth usually has both feet on the ground．But the opposite is not always true．Someone with both feet on the ground may not be as open and easy to deal with as someone who is down to earth．
When we have both our feet firmly on the ground，and when we are down to earth，we do not have our noses in the air．We act honestly and openly to others．And our lives are like the ground below up—solid and strong．
