A group of graduates got together to visit their old university professor.
The conversation soon turned into complaints about   1   in work and life. Offering his   2   coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and   3   with a large pot of coffee and a   4   of cups — porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain-looking, some expensive, some beautiful — telling them to   5   themselves to the coffee.
When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said, “If you have   6  , all the nice-looking expensive cups have been   7  , leaving behind the plain and   8   ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves,  that is the   9   of your problems and stress.”
“Be assured that the cup   10   adds no quality to the coffee.   11   it is just more expensive and in some cases   12   hides what we drink.”

Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we   19   to enjoy the coffee. Value the coffee, not the cups! Don't let the cups   20   you… enjoy the coffee instead.”
