Several years ago I __2__ a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry, who described herself as a world-class fault-finder, almost always __3__ by things.People were always doing things that annoyed her, and __4__ was ever good enough.She was highly selfcritical and also found fault with her friends.She became a really __5__ person.
Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her __6__. Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash.What made it almost __7__ to deal with was that the day before the __8__, Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her __9__ of boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to __10__. It wasn’t until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became __11__ her habit of finding fault.Very quickly, she learned to appreciate life rather than to __12__ everything so harshly(刻薄).She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her __13__ as well.
Perhaps most of us aren’t as extreme at fault-finding, __14__ when we’re honest, we can be sharply __15__ of
the world.I’m not suggesting you __16__ problems, or that you pretend things are __17__ than they are, but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are—__18__ most of the time, and especially when it’s not a really big __19__.
Train yourself to “bite your tongue”, and with a little __20__, you’ll get really good at letting things go.And when you do, you’ll get back your enthusiasm and love for life.
