Since then, for the past thirty-three years, I've looked   3   the mirror every morning and asked myself, "If today were the last day of my life, what would I do? " And when there was no answer for too many days in a   4   , I know I need to change something.

  About a year ago I   5   from cancer.The doctors told me it was incurable, and that I should   6   to live no longer than three to six months.They advised me to get my   7   in order, which is doctors' code(代名词)for "prepare to   8   ".Later when the doctors   9   the cells taken from my pancreas(胰腺)under a microscope, they found it turned out to be a very rare form of cancer that is   10   with surgery.I had the surgery and,   11   , I'm fine now.

  This was the closest I've been to facing   12   , and I hope it's the closest I get for a few more decades.Death is the destination we all   13  .No one has ever escaped it.And that is   14   it should be, because death is very likely the single   15   invention of life.It clears out the old to make   16   for the new.Your time is limited, so don't waste it living   17   life.Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out(盖过)your own inner   18  .And most importantly, have the courage to   19   your heart and intuition(直觉).They   20   already know what you truly want to become.Everything else is secondary.
