However, life can be 1 when you are not busy finding fault with it.‎ Several years ago I 2 a letter from seventeenyearold Kerry, who described herself as a worldclass faultfinder, almost always 3 by things. People were always doing things that annoyed her, and 4 was ever good enough. She was highly selfcritical and also found fault with her friends. She became a really 5 person.‎ Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her 6 . Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash. What made it almost 7 to deal with was that the day before the 8 ， Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her 9 of boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to 10 . It wasn't until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became 11 her habit of finding fault. Very quickly, she learned to appreciate life rather than to 12 everything ‎ so harshly(刻薄)．She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her 13 as well.‎ Perhaps most of us aren't as extreme at faultfinding, 14 when we're honest, we can be sharply 15 of the world. I'm not suggesting you 16 problems, or that you pretend things are 17 than they are, but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are— 18 most of the time, and especially when it's not a really big 19 .‎ Train yourself to “bite your tongue”， and with a little 20 ， you'll get really good at letting things go.

By society's 2 ，they seem to have it made.‎ On the surface，these people seem to be very lucky in life.
