On a Sunday morning I was running and noticed a person in front of me. I could  41  he was running a little slower than and decide to try to  42 him. I had about a kilometer to go on the road before  43

So I started running faster and every block I was  44  on him just a little bit. After just a few minutes, I was only about 100 yards   45  him. So I  46  the pace and pushed myself. You would have thought I was running in the  47  part of a marathon.

Finally I caught up with him and  48  him by. On the inside I felt so good. I “beat” him,  49 he didn’t even know we were  50  .

After I passed him. I  51 that I had been so focused on competing against him that I had  52 my turn, had gone nearly six blocks past it and had to turn around and go  53 .

Isn’t that what happens in life when we  54  on competing with co-workers, neighbors, friends, trying to outdo them or trying to prove we are more successful or more  55  ? We spend our time and energy running after them and we miss our own  56 

The   57  with unhealthy competition is that it is a never ending circle. There will always be somebody  58 you, someone with a better job, more money in the bank, more education, better behaved children, etc.

   Take what life has given you, and you will be  59  by it. Stay focused and live a healthy life. There is no  60 in destiny(命运). Run your own race and wish others well.
