15．For 52 years my father got up at 5：30 am every morning，went to work，and returned home at 5：30 pm．I never saw my father stayed home from work ill，nor did I ever see my father lay down to take a nap．He had no hobbies，other thantaking care of his family．All he asked from me，his daughter，was to help him while he was repairing something，so we could have some time to talk．

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 the young man．"I choose to be cheerful．"

"As soon as I got there，I called AAA（美国汽车协会） and asked them to send a tow truck （拖车）．The secretary in the Provost's office asked me what had happened．'This is my lucky day'，I replied，smiling．"
"Your car breaks down and today is your lucky day？"She was puzzled，"What do you mean？"
"I live seventeen miles from here"．I replied．"My car could have broken down anywhere along the freeway．It didn't．Instead，it broke down in the perfect place：off the freeway，within walking distance of here．I'm still able to teach my class，and I've been able to arrange for the tow truck to meet me after class．If my car was meant to break down today，it couldn't have been arranged in a more convenient fashion．"
