I am sure many people have said about me, "He must be the happiest man in the world!" But they were wrong. 1 I was famous and had 2 money, I was not really happy. I found myself asking," 3 does all this not give me real happiness?"
Newspapers said, "Kriss Akabusi is the European champion. He has also 4 an Olympic bronze medal. " Now before all this happened, I had 5, "If I can become a champion, I will be happy. I will 6 a lot of money and then enjoy 7 . I will have a good time. "
When I went to the Edinburgh Games, in my hotel 8 I found a book by my bedside. It was called What's Real Happiness in Life? I 9 this book up and read some of the stories in it. The book mainly told about the happiness brought by helping others. But I said to 10, "All these things are too 11 for me to do."
But that night I had a 12 . I found myself standing by a river. I 13 a voice calling to me from the other side of the river. The voice said, "You know helping others is as 14 as crossing the river, and it's not as difficult as you imagine." Then suddenly I awoke. I realized I was 15 now when compared to before. I found I had real 16 of mind.
So I can now tell my friends what I have 17 . Being famous and having a lot of money 18 gave me happiness. So all I can say to you is this—we are 19 when we think that to be famous and rich will make us happy. Now I have a children's TV program called Record Breakers. I have no 20 about what tomorrow will bring.
