One day, a well-known speaker was invited to give a lecture to an audience of 200. He started his lecture by      a $ 20 bill. He looked around the room, and asked, “Who would like this $20 bill?”     started going up.

He said, “I am going to     this $20 to one of you, but first, let me do this.” He crumpled up (揉皱) the 20-dollar bill. He then asked, “Who      wants it?” Still the hands were     in the air.

“Well”, he replied,“    I do this ?” And he dropped it on the     and started to step on it with his shoes. He picked it up. Now it was crumpled and      .

“Now, who wants it?” Still the hands went into the air.

“My friends, we have all learned a very     lesson. No matter what I did to the      , you still want it because it doesn’t decrease in   . It is still worth $20, with     we can buy what we need.

Many times in our lives, we are   , and trampled underfoot by the decision we     and the circumstances that come our way. We feel   we were worthless. But no matter what has happened or what may happen to us, you will never     your value. Dirty or clean, you are still priceless to those who do love you. The worth of our lives is determined not by      we do or who we know, but by who we are. You are     . Don’t ever forget it.”

If you     this lesson in mind, it will help you to      again when you fall. Each time it makes you grow much stronger.
