Life is a multiple choice question, either unhappy or happy! ? ?

Harry is a hotel owner. He is a happy and optimistic person. All the troubles in life can't bury his joy from the heart.When someone asks him how he is doing, he always replies: "My heart is full of joy."?
If a co-worker was in a bad mood, he would tell them how to look at things positively.He said: "Every morning, as soon as I wake up, I say to myself, Harry, you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a dark mood. I choose to be in a good mood. Every time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it, I choose the latter. Life is a choice, you choose how to deal with situations. At the end of the day, you choose how to deal with life.”?
One day, Harry forgot to close the back door of the hotel and was stopped by three gunmen.The gangster shot him. ?
Fortunately, things were discovered early and Harry was sent to the emergency room.After 18 hours of rescue and several weeks of intensive treatment, Harry was discharged from the hospital, but a small amount of shrapnel remained in his body. ?
Six months later, a friend of his met him.A friend asked him how he was doing, and he said, "My heart is full of joy. Would you like to see my scars?" The friend looked at the scars and asked him what he was thinking at that time.Harry replied: "When I was lying on the ground, I said to myself that there were two options: one was to die or one was to live. I chose to live. The medical staff were all fine and they told me that I would be fine. But after they wheeled me into the emergency room, I read 'he's a dead man' in their eyes. I knew I needed to do something."?
"What action did you take?" the friend asked. ?
Harry said: "A nurse asked me loudly if I was allergic to anything. I immediately said 'yes'. At this time, all the doctors and nurses stopped and waited for me to speak. I took a deep breath, Then I yelled: 'Bullets!' And amidst a lot of laughter, I said: 'Please treat me as a living person, not a dead person.'”?
Harry just survived.

A professor of psychology at Harvard University told this story when he was giving psychological counseling to one of his students. ?
Maybe you have discovered the secret about emotions. You will find that there is happiness, and there is always sadness opposite it;Emotions are divided into positive emotions and negative emotions, and this pros and cons makes you face a choice.You can adopt an optimistic attitude, live actively, and enjoy life happily; you can also look at the world with pessimistic eyes, watching time go by like water and life coming to an end in sadness. ?
What are your options? ?
