Increase happiness

I ever worked as a volunteer in a nursing home. One day, a 90-year-old lady

moved into the nursing home. Although she was nearly

16

, her hair and clothes

looked very nice.

Her husband passed away recently,

17

she had to move out of her old

house. After many hours of

18

patiently in the hall of the nursing home, she

smiled sweetly when I told her that her room was

19

. In the elevator(

电梯

), I

began to

20

her room, including the old sheets hung on her window.

“I love it,” She smiled with the excitement of an eight

-year- old who has just

been given a new toy.

“But you haven’t seen the room. Just wait.”

“That doesn’t have anything to do with it,”she replied. “Happiness is

21

you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn’t

22

the

furniture. It’s how I arrange my mind. I already decided to

23

it. It’s a decision

I make every morning when I wake up. I have two choices: I can spend the day in

bed complaining about the parts of my body that

24

work, or get out of bed

and thank the ones that still do.
