Joy in the Journey

If you have ever been discouraged because of failure, please read on. For often, achieving what you set out to do is not the important thing. Let me explain.

    Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to    41   . “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “We plan to dig a hole all the way through the    42   !” One of the brothers volunteered    43   

    The older boys began to    44   , telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was    45   . After a long silence, one of the    46    picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and many other kinds of insects. He    47    the lid and showed the wonderful    48    to the scoffing（嘲笑的）visitors. Then he said quietly and    49   , “Even if we don’t dig all the way through the earth, look at what we have found    50    the way!”

    Their goal was far too ambitious, but it did cause them to dig. And that is    51    a goal is for — to cause us to move in the    52    we have chosen, in other words, to keep us      53   ! But not every goal will be fully    54   . Not every job will end    55   . Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. Not every dream will be    56   . But when you fall    57    of your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things    58    my life because I tried to do something!” It is in the digging    59    life is lived. And I believe it is the joy in the journey, in the end, that truly    60   .
