For a long time I saw happiness as a huge banner(横幅)across the finish line of a long race.I felt that only when I __41__ certain things could I finally be happy in my life.Most of the time I felt like a tortoise believing that being slow and __42__ would win the race.At other times I would__43__ like a rabbit trying different side roads at a dangerous __44__hoping to reach that banner a little faster.__45__，I began to see that no matter how long I raced towards it，the banner was never any__46__.I finally decided one day to __47__and take a break.It was then that I saw my __48__ sitting beside me.
It had been with me as I __49__ hard to support my family，as I played with my children and heard their __50__ and even when I was __51__ with my wife at my side looking after me.It had been with me as I raced towards that stupid banner.I just didn't have the __52__ to see it.
There is an old Chinese proverb that says，“Tension is what you think you should be.__53__ is who you are.”Perhaps we all should stop our race towards the __54__ life we think we should have and __55__ the life we have now.Happiness will never be found under some banner far away.It will be found __56__ your own heart，soul and mind.It will be found when you _57__ that others love you just as you do.
Don't be a tortoise or a rabbit when it comes to your happiness.Be a playful puppy and carry your stick of __58__ with you everywhere you go.__59__yourself out of the race and realize that when it comes to love and happiness you are__60__there.
