I am a worrier. I worry from the moment I wake to the moment I sleep.

Around a year ago, I found my worries ______ me clown and down. I needed a way to reduce my ______ and make them disappear. Then a brilliant idea occurred to me. Instead of worrying about whatever ______ itself to my consciousness at any given moment, and unless I had a ______ and urgent worry to deal with. I’d ______ myself to worrying about imaginary things. This new system ______ me quite well for a while  ______ the day last month when the captain of the plane I was travelling on failed in his landing ______ at Shannon Airport, because there was “a problem” with the landing gear (起落架). We ______ for a while. Then the captain announced the Issue still couldn’t be solved and that the crew would take us through the ______ for an emergency landing,.

Suddenly my mother’s voice was in my head: “In the ______ of an emergency, put your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye.” I laughed silently at my mother’s joke. and I wondered why I wasn’t ______. I suddenly realized I was experiencing a complete and total absence of worry, as there was absolutely nothing I could do to ______ the problem with the plane.

As the runway rose to meet our planes ______ underbelly (下腹部) and the firefighters ______ to meet us, I felt a strange and beautiful ______. And as the plane landed perfectly because, as it ______, the problem was with a sensor and not with the landing gear and people ______ and hugged one another, I realized I wasn’t a ______ at all. The absence of worry I had just experienced was ______ an absence of any possibility of control. So I’m a control freak, wanting to control everything. And now I’m terribly worried about that.
