What is it that you love to do but never feel that you get it quite right? Perhaps you don't even try any more because you think what you do is not
36 enough.
Discouragement seems to follow us a good part of the time,
37 whatever it is that we work so hard doing, it seems that there is
38 someone else who can do it much better.
I have always enjoyed music and it is
39 to me that every musician has a
40 of their own. My father__
41 several instruments and when he played with others, it was not difficult to ___
42 his sound in a group. Whether it was guitar or another instrument, he had his own
43 sound.
I
44 read of a music teacher who commented to a discouraged student, “
45 else can make the sound that you make. The sound that you make may not be the same as someone else's but who is to say which is
46 . ” It is said that, “
47 is in the eye of the beholder（观看者）, ” perhaps it could be said that “a delightful sound is in the ear of the

Every person has a different tone of voice that
49 only to them,
50 we all know people with an unforgettable laugh or a way of
51 that is unique to them. It might not be the sound of your music or your voice at all. It
52 be the way you whistle or the sound of your footsteps.
Each person has a（an）
53 on the world in some way. Someone else can do what you do, but they cannot do it
54 the same way that you do it. The next time you feel
55 , remember “Nobody else can make the sound that you make. ”
