Margie was the best hostess. She greeted everyone at the door, and she   41   candies and offered drinks. Margie   42   that everyone had a good time and that absolutely everything was   43  . But this was not Margie’s party. She was a   44   at the party like everyone else, and yet she acted as if she owned the   45  . She wants to be   46   and needs to be in control. I used to be like Margie,   47   to control the uncontrollable. I felt   48   the feelings and actions of the people around me. My body ached due to the weight I put on my own   49  .

One day while I was out with a friend, I realized how far my desire for   50   had gotten. As I Liked to my friend, a stranger’s towel was blown away. I   51   in vain for the towel. My friend called me on it and I   52   realized the extent (程度) my sense of responsibility had gotten. Realizing I was   53   living my life, I had to make a(n)   54  .

If we turn to   55  ,we see that it does not fight for control. A stream does not try to   56   its own course; water simply flows the path of least resistance (阻力). A   57   does not create an exact flight plan; a plane trusts its inner guidance system and adapts   58   to new wind currents (气流).

Next time you try to control the uncontrollable, take a breath.   59   and wait. You will find things can be better, with less effort, and in   60   ways you could not have imagined. And you will find a love of life again.
