I was flying on an airplane the other day when my new pen splattered （溅） black ink all over the front of my new dress. The pen was my favorite kind of pen. I loved my new dress even more, ___11___. I paid full price for it, which I had never done. But the dress was ___12___.

I put this 24 to a friend, and she said the ruined dress was one of those lessons about the 25 of things, about non-attachment. About how everything changes and how life is about letting go.

So much___28___! A new dress isn’t a show of attachment to___29___objects. I knew the dress would start looking shabby one day. But my new dress was a symbol of___30___.
