This is my third story. When I was 17, I read a quote(引述) that     something like,”If you live each day       it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right.” Since then, for the past thirtythree years，I've looked       the mirror every morning and asked myself：“If today were the last day of my life，would I want to do what I am ____ to do today？”And whenever the answer has been ”No” for too many days in a row(连续)，I know I need to change something.
About a year ago I was      with cancer. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should      to live no longer than three to six months. They advised me to go home and get my       in order，which is doctors' code for ”prepare to    ”. Later that evening when the doctors          the cells taken from my pancreas(胰腺)under a microscope，they started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is       with surgery. I had the surgery and,   , I'm fine now.
This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope it's the closest I get for a few more decades. Death is the    we all share. No one has      escaped it. And that is     it should be，because death is very likely the single      invention of life. It's life's change agent. It clears out the old to make       for the new. Your time is      , so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma(信条)—which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of       opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most importantly, have the courage to      your heart and intuition(直觉). They     already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

When Winsion Chruchill was a young man, his father concluded that Churchill was “unfit for a career in law or politics” because he did so badly in school.
When Charles Darwin was getting ready to 36 on his five-year expedition on The Beagle, his father was extremely 37 . he thought his son was falling into a life of sin and idleness.
Gorge Washington’s mother was a complaining,   38 woman by all accounts. She thought little of Washington’s achievements and didn’t   39 at either of his presidential inaugurations（就职典礼）. She was always 40 that her children overlooked her and she was especially angry when her son George ran off to 41 the army for the American Revolution. She   42 believed it was his duty to stay home and take care of her.
In his youth, the 43 Leonard Bernstein, one of the most talented and successful composers in American history, was continually pressured by his father to 44 his music and do something worthwhile, like help out in his family’s beauty-supply business. After Leonard became 45 , his father was asked about that, and he answered, “Well, how was I supposed to know he was the Leonard Bernstein?”
People may criticize you or make fun of your ideas or actively try to 46 you. Often their efforts are only attempts to protect you from 47 . But obviously failure is only a possibility if you stop. If you keep 48 , a “failure” is just another learning 49 . Besides, giving up on a heartfelt goal is worse than failing. “Many people die”, said Wendell Holmes, “with their 50 still in them.” That’s true tragedy.
So listen 51 to the worries and criticisms of your friends and family, and do your best to put their minds 52 , but then carry on. Listen last to your own heart. You   53 yourself better than anyone on earth. Make sure your song is 54 .
Listen to your own heart. Don’t let your music   55 with you.
