One spring afternoon five years ago,Jimmy Liao was crying in the hall of Taipei's Sherwood Hotel. Life seemed1   . The people who laughed as they walked past were taking their 2    for granted, just as he 3    himself. Now,however, he felt 4   and he couldn't even show his disappointment in his 5    .

Seeking more personally satisfying 6   ，he had just left a successful job as a commercial artist when it seemed that fate(命運(yùn))played a cruel 7    on him. It was at this time that he developed cancer and was 8    to work. But that moment in the hotel was a turning point for Jimmy. He began to 9    the fact that there is no such a thing as fate,only 10    . Since then,he has published several imaginative, illustrated(帶插圖的)books.

According to Jimmy，you are11.   you choose to be. You can give up or you can work to be a happier person. Jimmy realized that,while the world 12    seems unfair,your choice can change your life.

This idea can be 13    in Jimmy' s books，where his characters show the powerlessness they feel 14    making their choices. The message that goes with Jimmy, s drawings，however，is 15   . Though the world may make us feel small，we must be 16   . Everything will be all right for us―as it is for the "small people" in Jimmy，s books if we make choices that are 17   for us.

In spite of his new 18   and wealth, Jimmy prefers working 19   at home with his wife and daughter. He spends his mornings drawing. To Jimmy, living a life as he chooses means much

more than money and fame could 20   .
