I felt very sad and even 41 for losing the money when I got home. To make up for my 42 mistake, I gathered all my strength to give our house a thorough cleaning and then 43 a wonderful meal and cooked a special dish my wife loved to 44 her.

The world has never faced so much trouble before. People are within themselves about natural resources, territories and especially religions. In my opinion, laughter is a universal language, which has the ability to humanity without religions. Laughter can build a common connection between various religions and create a new world . The idea may sound over-ambitious, and maybe it is. But maybe it is not. It is our deep that laughter and only the laughter can unite the world, holding up a sense of brotherhood and friendship.
Studies also show that laughter helps your body to do the following: lower blood pressure; lighten depression; reduce stress; work out the heart, for those who are unable to perform exercise. So in life, when you can laugh, you should laugh loudly and with your entire body—because it’s good for you.

Maybe you know the saying, “When you point one finger, there are three fingers pointing back to you.” One wise man had a version of this when he said, “Don't focus on the dust in your brother's eye while the dirt in your own eye.” Why do we do this? Because criticisms are always ourselves. When we criticize others, we do not expose them, but expose ourselves. We our own weakness and smallness.
A story in the old tales the difference in wisdom between the good and the bad. Once a king both Nelson and Dick. The king asks Nelson to go out into the kingdom and after finding someone less qualified than himself. Then he asks Dick to go out into the kingdom and return after finding someone than himself.
When Fool Dick returns, he tells the king that he couldn't find anyone better than himself. Wise Nelson says that he was to find anyone less qualified than himself on his return.
Moral of the story is something about human . Good people always look at their own and faults and consider themselves less qualified than others. Whereas bad people always look at the shortcomings and faults of others and themselves more qualified than others.
