19.Marvin,a friend of mine,was the kind of guy who was always happy and had something positive to say.Being a natural motivator,Marvin was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation whenever he or she was having a bad day.Several months ago in his restaurant,Margin was held up at gunpoint by four armed robbers.They panicked and shot him.Luckily,Marvin was found relatively quickly and rushed to the local hospital.After 18hours of operation and weeks of intensive care,Marvin was recovered with pieces of the bullets(子弹)still in his body.
It is really a miracle(奇迹)for Marvin's surviving the robbery.When I met Marvin after the terrifying accident,I did ask him what had gone through this mind as the robbery took place.Marvin replied,"as I lay on the floor,I remembered that I had two choices:I could choose to live,or I could choose to die.I declined to choose to die."Marvin continued,"The nurses kept telling me I was going to be fine.But when they wheeled me into the emergency room and from the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses I read,‘He's a dead man.'I knew I needed to take action.""What did you do?"I asked."Well,there was a big nurse shouting questions at me,"said Marvin."She asked if I was allergic to anything.‘Yes'I replied.The doctors and nurse stopped working as they waited for my reply.I took a deep breath and yelled,‘Bullets'.Over their laughter I told them,‘I am choosing to live.Operate on me as if I am alive,not dead.'"
"Each time something bad happens,I can choose to be a victim or to learn from it.I choose to learn from it.Every time someone comes to me complaining,I can choose to accept their complaining or to point out the positive side of life.I choose the positive side of life."Marvin concluded.
