After the classmates reunion, some graduates decided to visit their old university professor.

The conversation soon turned into     about stress in work and life. his guests with coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and     with a large pot of coffee and a variety of cups—porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some     , some expensive, some exquisite—     them to help themselves to the coffee.

When all the students had a cup of coffee   , the professor said,       you have noticed, all the nice-looking expensive cups have been taken up,        the plain and cheap ones. While it is     for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the     of your problems and stress. "

"Be assured that the cup itself adds no     to the coffee. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even     what we drink. "

"What all of you really want is coffee, not the cup, but you     went for the best cups... and then you began     each other’s cups.”

“Now consider this: life is the     ; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life, and the type of cup we have does not     , nor change the quality of life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only     the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee.     the coffee, not the cups! Don’t let the cups     you ... enjoy the coffee   50  .”
