I am sure many people have said about me, “He must be the happiest man in the world!” But they were wrong. 36   I was famous and had 37 money, I was not really happy. I found myself asking, “ 38  does all this not give me real happiness?”
Newspapers said, “Kriss Akabusi is the European champion. He has also  39   an Olympic bronze medal.” Now before all this happened, I had  40  , “If I can become a champion, I will be happy. I will  41   a lot of money and then enjoy  42  . I will have a good time.”
When I went to the Edinburgh Games, in my hotel  43  I found a book by my bedside. It was called What’s Real Happiness in Life? I  44   this book up and read some of the stories in it. The book mainly told about the happiness brought by helping others. But I said to  45  , “All these things are too  46   for me to do.”
But that night I had a  47  . I found myself standing by a river. I 48   a voice calling to me from the other side of the river. The voice said, “You know helping others is as  49   as crossing the river, and it’s not as difficult as you imagine.” Then suddenly I awoke. I realized I was  50   now when compared to before. I found I had real  51   of mind.
So I can now tell my friends what I have  52  . Being famous and having a lot of money  53   gave me happiness. So all I can say to you is this—we are  54   when we think that to be famous and rich will make us happy. Now I have a children’s TV program called Record Breakers. I have no  55   about what tomorrow will bring.
