Most of the time I felt like a tortoise① believing that being slow and __2__ would win the race.

I finally decided one day to __7__ and take a break. It was then that I saw my __8__ sitting beside me.
It had been with me as I __9__ hard to support my family, as I played with my children and heard their __10__ and even when I was __11__ 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 __12__ to see it.
There is an old Chinese proverb② that says, " Tension is what you think you should be. __13__ is who you are. " Perhaps we all should stop our race towards the __14__ life we think we should have and __15__ the life we have now. Happiness will never be found under some banner far away. It will be found __16__ your own heart, soul and mind. It will be found when you __17__ that others love you just as you love them.
Don't be a tortoise or a rabbit when it comes to your happiness. Be a playful puppy and carry your stick of __18__ with you everywhere you go. __19__ yourself out of the race and realize that when it comes to love and happiness you are __20__ there.
