Alex was my friend. He was always happy and always had something interesting to say. lf someone asked him1he was doing, he would answered, "Couldn't be better!" He was really a care-free(无忧无虑的）young man and never felt2
Alex used to say, "Each morning I 3and say to myself, ‘Alex, you have two choices today. You can4to be happy or you can choose to be upset(郁闷).'I choose to be happy.5something happens, I am always ready to learn a good6. I choose to learn from life."
I tried to understand what he said. It is7that life is all about choices. Every situation is a choice. The bottom line is: You are8your own life and you make it either happy or sad.
Several years later, I had a car accident and my legs were9injured. I remembered that I had two choices: I could choose to live or choose to die. I choose to live.
People like to say: "Choose the one you love and10the one you choose." Why not choose the one we love and live happily?
