Life is to be lived.No excuses.No reservations.No holding back.
A charming story about violinist Fritz Kreisler tells how he once came across a(n) 1 instrument he wanted to acquire.When he finally raised enough money for the 2 ,he returned to buy it and learned that it had already been 3 to a collector.?
He went to the new owner’s home in order to try to 4 him to sell the violin.But the collector said it was one of his precious 5 and he could not let it go.The disappointed Kreisler turned to leave,but then asked a 6 ,“May I play the instrument once more before it is consigned(置于……的境地)to 7 ?”?
8 was given and the great musician began to play.The violin sang out a lot of music which was so beautiful that the collector himself could only 9 in wonderment.?
“I have no right to keep that to myself,” he said after the musician 10 .“The violin is yours,Mr.Kreisler.Take it to the world,and let people 11 it.”?
William Arthur Ward said,“If you believe in prayer,pray;if you believe in 12 ,serve;if you believe in giving,give.”?
So if you and I are delicate violins—our music is 13 to be heard.?
I want to live my life this way—to take it to the world and live it 14 .I’d rather burn out than rust out.I’d rather be used up than die not having done 15 I could.?
I’m not talking about 16 ourselves out on overwork.Happiness is never found in excessive work. 17 ,it is found in investing our lives in others.Say yes when asked for a 18 .Volunteer some time for a worthwhile organization.Spend an hour with a lonely relative.?
In the end,I know that my 19 will not be about my ability or my inability.It will be 20 my availability.My life is meant to be lived.?
