I teach economics at UNLV three times per week. Last Monday, at the beginning of class, I cheerfully asked my students how their weekend had been. One young man said that he had his wisdom teeth removed. The young man then proceeded to ask me why I always seemed to be so cheerful.
His question reminded me of something I’d read somewhere before, “Every morning when you get up, you have a choice about how you want to approach life that day,” I said to my class. “I choose to be cheerful.”
“Let me give you an example,” I continued, “in addition to teaching here at UNLV, I also teach out at the community college in Henderson, 17 miles down the freeway from where I live. One day a few weeks ago I drove those 17 miles to Henderson. I exited the freeway and turned onto College Drive. I only had to drive another quarter mile down the road to the college. But just then my car died. I tried to start it again, but the engine wouldn’t turn over. So I put my flashers on, took my books, and marched down the road to the college.”
“As soon as I got there, I called the Provost’s office and arranged for a tow truck to meet me at my car after class. The secretary in the Provost’s office asked me what had happened. ‘This is my lucky day,’ I replied, smiling.”
Paragraph 1:
“Why did you call it a lucky day? After all, your car broke down halfway.” the young man was confused.
