良好的生活方式英语作文【经典20篇】

Every student will be faced with the question when he passes the college entrance examinations: Should we choose a good major or a good university first?

Some students prefer to consider majors first so that they can learn what they are interested in. It will also make it possible for them to take their favorite jobs in the future.

However, those who think differently believe that the environment is important to one’s development and that graduates from leading universities are often more likely to find a good job.

In my opinion, the best choice is a good major at a good university. If we cannot obtain both, the first thing to consider is a good major, because no matter where we study, we can still achieve a lot in a certain field if we try our best.

I had an interesting summer vacation. Would you like to see it? Let me introduce to you how interesting my summer vacation is!

I went to many places, such as the beautiful Maanling Forest Park, the beautiful Longhu Mountain, and the Jinhua Double Dragon Cave that Ye Shengtao visited. But these are not the most pleasant memories of my summer vacation.

It was Saturday morning, I just woke up, saw my mother in a hurry, mouth called: Im going to be late for work, you father and son help me wash clothes! When I want to tell my mother that I cant wash, her back is far away from me. Father pretended not to hear and went on to sleep.

Finally, I had to do it. I picked up the dirty clothes reluctantly, picked up soap and brushes, and washed them impatiently. Washing, a small bubble floating from my face, flashing colorful light. I showed a smile, because I learned to wash clothes, the sun from the window, shining on my face, it seems particularly brilliant.

This is the most successful and happy summer vacation I have ever had!

Nowadays,more and more people feel like emigrating to foreign countries,such as America, England and Canada. There are many reasons accounting for this phenomenon.And peopie have diffrent opinions to these emigrants.

Some people think migrate to some foreign countries with a view to making their children receive good education there.Others just want to experience a different culture they like.Although it may be exciting to drop their family in a totally unfamiliar place.They desire to meet new things ,new people,and new worlds.All in all,the most important things is they must have enough money and time.All these above factors contribute to their choice to migrate to another country. As far as I am concerned,I prefer to live in my country for long rather than migrate to other foreign countries. For one thing, I don’t like to live far from my friends and relatives. For another, I can’t bear to speak and listen to a foreign language from day to night. In a word, everyone has his right to decide where to live, and everyone’s choice should be respected.

瞧，仿佛还在六月那炎热的夏天，转眼，秋天来了；冬天近了。童年，又离我远去了一步。还是想像小时候一样，和妈妈撒娇；和爸爸讨好吃的。可这一切都不复存在了，人的生老病死，都不是我们自己来把握的。前院的奶奶来了，一看，眼角似乎又多了几条皱纹。

本来她可以过好的，就是因为整天愁这个愁那个。本来好好的家，在她的眼里却有许多的陷阱似的。整天忧心忡忡的，都不知道她愁的是什么？就这样整天在家里闷着，闷出病了。去了好多趟医院，每次都住院很长时间，才好一点。直到现在看见她时，眼里仿佛还有一丝忧愁未消去。

看到她我不禁为她哀伤。本来可以好好活何必要在身上加那么多重物呢？

用良好的心态面对生活，就能快乐的生活下去。

从前有一个老婆婆，她有两个儿子，现在都能自力更生了，可她却天天愁。她的大儿子是卖雨伞的，而她的小儿子开了一家洗衣店。这个老婆婆一到下雨天就开始愁了起来：“哎，我的小儿子洗完的衣服到哪里去晾呢！”一到晴天，却又开始愁了起来：“哎，我的大儿子雨伞可怎么卖！”邻居看老太太一天天消瘦下去便对她说：“老婆婆，您可真有福气呀！天一晴，您小儿子的店里的生意就特别好；天一下雨，您的大儿子雨伞就卖得特别好！”老婆婆听了，心里也就开朗多了，仿佛越活越年轻了！

看，这样的话，你们想选哪种方式来生活？

你读了十几年书，有没有想过，学习，到底是什么?亦舒曾经说过，"作为女性，先要争取经济独立，然后才有资格谈到应该争取什么。十五至二十五岁，争取读书及旅游机会;二十五至三十五，努力工作，继续进修，组织家庭，开始储蓄;三十五岁以后，将工作变为事业，加倍争取学习，一定要拥有若干资产防身。"

其实，这段话放到每个人身上，都是一样。

我们拼命学习，我们努力看书充实自己，无数个夜晚复习背诵，都是为了一个个美好的以后打好基础，现在辛苦一点也值得。倘若现在放弃，不止前功尽弃也为了不让自己后悔，免得到时候不甘心处处抱怨。我们所有的学习和努力，都是为了心中想要的生活。

不管你有再多的兴趣爱好，再多的社会关系，再深的对努力学习的厌恶之感。在你青春期的某一个时间点，你都会明白，学习的重要性高过所有。你要无欲则刚，你要学会孤独，你要把自己逼出最大的潜能，没有人会为了你的未来买单;你要么努力向上爬，要么烂在社会最底层的泥淖里。这就是生活。

你无需置疑学习的意义。如果别人努力学习时，你在看无厘头的偶像剧;如果别人认真上课思考问题时，你在耽误时间跟人聊天。那么以后，你也不要妒忌别人的成功与收获，不要抱怨自己一事无成，事实就是这样。你必须很努力，才能做到看起来毫不费力。

契诃夫说得好，"我们的事业就是学习再学习，努力积累更多的知识，因为有了知识，社会就会有长足的进步，人类的未来幸福就在于此。"

学习，是一场人生的修行，更是提升自己最好的生活方式

This is a most significant summer vacation, this is one of the most fulfilling summer vacation.

In this summer vacation. I paid a hard work, harvest the fruits of happiness. Become the I grew up in an indelible memory.

This summer holiday, I insist to get up at six every morning azuoweng.

Time is long, the body also becomes stronger. And, in this period of time, I I always fell more troubling problem, that is the problem to ride a bike.

Life is blending with bitter and sweet. Sometimes we may feel blue and don’t know what to do, but you just need to cheer up and find the true happiness in your life. Everyone is longing for happiness. But what is happiness? Different people have different opinions to happiness. Some people think making large sum of money and spending all of it on big mansion, expensive food, pretty clothes and fancy cars make them happy; some people think marry to the people they love and live a plain life is happiness, even though they can not afford a bigger house or a brand-new car；And some other people think that don’t need to go to work and sleep in the bed until the noon is happiness. Apparently, the definition of happiness varies from person to person.

For me, staying in good health and have a long vacation without homework is happiness. Good health is the foundation of happiness. Picture this, if I sick, I will go to the hospital, and there are a lot of funny things I can’t do because I feel uncomfortable. I will lose my appetite for the delicious food, and have no strength to go outside to play with my friends. What’s worse, in order to cure the illness, I will sallow countless pills and some of them may have side effects. Only a well function body can ensure the life to be happy. While a long vacation will give me affluent time to do the things I want to. If I can spend my time to do the things I want instead of homework, I definitely will be very happy. I really love traveling; I plan to go to Tibet on next long vacation. To see the beautiful scenes of the different places can broaden my horizon and enrich my life experience. I wish everybody find their happiness in life.

最近一个时期，我听到了“低碳生活”一词。通过看书了解，低碳生活是一种低消耗，低能量，低开支，从而减少二氧化碳的排放的生活方式。在查阅资料的过程中，我知道了保定是全国中小城市的试点城市，作为一名小学生，我能为低碳生活做点什么呢?

Recently, I heard a "low carbon life" is a word. By reading books about low carbon life is a kind of low consumption, low energy, low cost, thereby reducing carbon dioxide emissions by way of life. In the data access process, I know Baoding is a pilot city of national small and medium-sized city, as a student, what can I do for the low-carbon life?

以前，我就每天把水拧到最大，洗手、洗脸每月都要耗水十几吨，现在，老师告诉我们要准备两个水桶，用来储存废水。废水可以用来冲厕所，拖地、浇花。用电也要节约，看完电脑或电视后，要把插座上的小红灯关掉，以便节约电源，尽量放假时白天写作业，晚上早关灯一小时，用那一小时的时间和家人散步。既节约了电源，又起到了减肥的作用，还增进了感情，真是一举多得呀!少用一次性物品(筷子、饭盒等)少用塑料袋，多用环保袋。出行最好步行，少开私家车，少做出租，多做公交车。这样就做到了“低消耗、低能量、低开支”的作用。

Previously, so every day I screwed water to wash hands, every month, water consumption of ten tons, now, the teacher told us to prepare two bucket, used to store the waste water. The waste water can be used to flush the toilet, mopping the floor, water the flowers. Use of electricity is to save, read a computer or TV, to the socket on the small red light off, in order to save power, as far as possible when the homework, early in the evening lights for one hour, walking in the one hour time with family. Save power, but also played a role in weight loss, but also to enhance the feelings, really serve multiple purposes! Use less disposable items (such as chopsticks, lunch boxes) to use less plastic bags, use environmental protection bags. The best travel on foot, opened a small car rental, do less, do more buses. So do the "low consumption, low energy, low cost" role.

低碳生活，人人有责，让我先行，保护环境。

Low carbon life, everybody, let me first, Protect environment.

University, a place that people yearn for. There have their own space and time, after school can be the light of heart from care and your love shopping, can boldly go hand in hand to see the teacher also satisfied a smile in the campus, you can sleep in the class is not afraid of being punished teacher, can occasionally to the Internet in the dormitory, so the fairys life can not worth we yearn for it? The university is simply a human being.

I am envious when I hear such a student life, because I also yearn for this kind of life. Happy days came at last, and I jumped into my long - worshipped college life like a rabbit. Unfortunately, I was not there to find happiness, more disappointed and confused about life. A day may be one or two classes, no homework, no sooner or later self study. Twelve years of draconous and stressful life suddenly changed, like a tight rubber band that suddenly loosened. The result of such a sudden relaxation is to get up at night in the daytime, to accept the radiation of the computer and not to ask the teachers star knowledge. This kind of life is free, but how long can it persist? Enter the university are ambitious, in order to find a good job, but now lost to this temptation......

Im just a freshman, I know a lot in this year, and I have learned a lot of things that I dont have in many books. Dont be addicted to the immortal life of the University. University is a good platform for development. Just because everyone is obsessed with this kind of life, students who study hard a little bit will have a good future. The life of the university is not easy, even more pressure than the pressure of high school life. Why do you say that? If universities want to realize their dreams, they cant relax themselves and enhance their self-control ability. When other students go online, they should stay in the study room or study in the library when they go shopping. And the university is also half a society, to have its own interpersonal relationship, and to speak the corresponding responsibility. If what position in the school, but also for the appreciation of their own to do some "small abacus." The parents who go to school are not around, and some things have to learn to take their own ideas. Like a flower growing in a greenhouse, it is now suddenly taken away to go through the baptism of rain and rain.

So, easy and comfortable college life is that those who have no pursuit will say it. I hope all of our college students are in the pursuit of the ideal road not to stand in the sight of the spectacle and forget where they are going.

I had a great time during my winter vacation. The first thing I did was I made a plan for my study. I assigned my homework equally according to the holidays so that I can finish all of them in time. And during my winter vacation， we welcome the most important festival in China-Spring Festival， it‘s also called Chinese New Year by lots of foreigners. At that night， our family came together and had a big meal. Of course we had dumplings that night， because that is our Chinese traditional. We then watch the CCTV spring festival evening party together and watch the beautiful fireworks. That‘s the happiest time in this world! The winter vacation I had dreamed all year around was finally coming. And I really enjoyed a lot from it. The first thing I did was I made a plan for my study. I assigned my homework equally according to the holidays so that I can finish all of them in time. I also arranged myself the books and words I need to read and recite. Secondly， I took some extracurricular activities and read some English original reading. My favorite book is ， written by Sherlock Holmes. Among all the classical movies， the Sound of Music was the most exciting one. During my holidays I also made some assistance for my physical class teacher， surely I met lots of difficulties in this stage and from which I knew what perseverance really was. Lastly， I went to the temple fair and was lucky to taste several Chinese traditional dishes; “Jiaohua chicken” is one of them. It is said it originated from Hangzhou centuries ago， made by a famous beggar Hong Qi Gong， the senior leader of Beggar Gang.Steamed with fresh lotus leaf wrapped up，it is famous for its special aroma and taste. Now that the holiday is ending and a new semester is coming， I need to fresh up and get started to embrace the upcoming challenges.

College is always considered as a turning point in our educational career and life. I would use adaptationas the key word when describing my first year at college.

As we enter a new school, we first have to adapt a new environment and meet new people.As we leave home and move into the school dormitory, we need to learn to live and get along with other people who have different living habit. And as we start a higher level education, we need to adopt a new way of study. Teachers are no more like the ones in high school that will push us to learn.

Instead, we have more options and spare time to do what we want.

I am glad that I have overcome the difficulties and adapted the new life of college. I have achieved a lot more than I expected at my first year of college. First of all, I have made new friends who share the same hobbies and met new teachers who inspire me in all way. Secondly, I have become more independent. I have got used to a new way of study and often study different things by myself. I can take care of myselfwithout parents being by my side all the time. Last but not least, I have learnt to make full use of my time. I believe time management is a very essential skill in college life as we have more freedom than ever before. It has helped me not to waste time and turned me into a well-organized person.

My first year at college is excellent and I really appreciate all that I have learnt this year.

How to Live in Harmony with your Roommates？Everyone  has his answer.In my opinion,to Live in Harmony with your Roommates,one should:

Firstly, keep the same pace with roommates. There are usually four people or more in a room. It’s better to have a unified schedule. To maintain the order of the life, everyone should coordinate and abide by the schedule to reduce the disputes.

Secondly, don’t make little “squads” in the dormitory. You should treat every person equally rather than discriminating or isolating someone. We object to establish deep friendship under the cost of   sacrificing the friendship’s width and breadth. It’s important to keep balance in the dormitory.

Thirdly, dont invade your roommates privacy. Everyone has their own secrets and eccentricities. We should not search roommates privacy. If someone has clearly made a field private, they must have special sensitive to this field and any subject attempting to break into this field will not be appreciated by them.

Fourthly, participate in dormitory’s collective activities actively. The activities of the dormitory is not only a simple activity, but also a way to contact with each other to share feelings. Dont be naive to think collective activity as boring and useless action which wastes time and money, and showing a pair of disparaging appearance for company. In fact, its all emotional investment, and indispensable.

Fifth, provide help and ask for help. Good roommate relationships is based on mutual help. When roommates meet with difficulties, we should voluntarily help. That’s obvious. So, when we have some trouble, is it appropriate to ask help from roommates? The answer is yes. Because sometimes asking for help show that you trust your roommates, which can deepen your relationship.

As a sophomore, I am feeling the time flies. Recalling about the past one year, so many thoughts are flooding in my mind. At this time, I just can’t tell my real idea. The memory is just like so fresh, and all the things happened yesterday!

When first day I came to University, I really feel that the school is very good, but at the first sight of the dormitory, something disappointing come up to me! The condition of the dormitory is really very poor with only one room, no lavatory! I saw something sad in my father’s eyes, maybe that time he thought of the poor condition! So with a big smile on my face, I told my father” it doesn’t matter, Dad. In this kind of condition, I will get myself better!” My father felt better. But when he was coming back, seeing his back, I just wanted to cry! I felt in this city I was just isolated, from that time, I said to myself, “ you have no others who can help you here, just depend on yourself”

And then I came to my dormitory 303. I considered that I would spend four years here (in fact I moved to another one year later) and my dorm mates are all there. Most of them came from Sichuan and they were chatting with a happy voice, but I can’t understand them! Again, I felt myself isolated! I hated that kind of feeling, and then I said to hello to them! To my surprise they are very friendly to me and warm-hearted! I no longer felt afraid. And I got along well with them. But at the first night here, I burst out to tears for that I was missing my family. I don’t know why. Everyday when I was at home, I was just eager to go to school, to experience the wonderful college life but when coming here, I am just eager to go back! It’s quite strange though, you must know this kind of feeling!

Just spending about 2 days here, we were on our way to military train. To us, it’s a fresh train and a kind of experience to know the life between the classmates. But to me, I was nervous but excited. This was my first and precious train life because before going to school I have been staying with my family. So, you know, it’s just this kind of feeling I can’t convey it clearly! The train life is impressive on everybody; we had a lot of activities, for example giving a speech on a stage or singing together or playing basketball. At that time, I felt myself so little among them. All of them have a special talent but not me. I admired them but meanwhile jealousy. Why don’t I have this kind of talent? Am I stupid? I always said to myself. So that time I was also very ambitious, just eager to catch up with them. Except the classmates, the trainer in our team also left a deep impression on me! He was not very handsome and very kind. Just because of his kindness results in my laughter when training. He always said to me that I should be serious in the team but I didn’t listen to him. So after a long time, when investigating the training result, I gave them a disappointing answer. The highest trainer sent me to clean the toilet, although, it didn’t means insulting to my dignity, but I was really sad about myself and my heart was hurt. That was a small thing but told me that I need to be serious to one thing. And unhappiness passed, the happy and funny time recalled me that folding the blanket. Yeah, it’s really very funny. Most of us had never folded the blanket and naturally we can’t accomplish the task well. When the monitor came, we pleased him to help us to fold the blanket. To our expect, we managed to persuade the monitor. After the monitor finished the task for me. I dared not to touch the blanket again and just used the clothes instead of the blanket. Of course, I felt very cold in deep night, so to my instinct, I crashed into my classmate’s blanket. And we were scratching the single blanket fiercely, just like a war. (Writing here I can’t help laughing out loudly).

暑假的一天，是一个社区活动的日子。我吃过早饭，早早的来到了社区的活动室。

不一会儿，社区活动的老师拿了沉甸甸的一捆报纸走进活动室。我们疑惑不解，难道这次是让我们来看报纸的吗？这时老师笑容可掬地说：“小朋友们，今天让你们体验一下邮递员的工作，把这些“北蔡家园”的报纸发到社区每家每户的邮箱里。”说完，老师分发给每人一叠报纸。

我和我的同学吴雨萌结伴同行发报纸，我们挨个挨个的寻找每个单元的收信箱，然后跑过去小心翼翼的把报纸放到每家的收信箱里。再看看男生们，好像在和我们抢信箱似的，都手忙脚乱的把报纸塞进信箱里，有的报纸都皱巴巴的了，好像在说：“哎呀，别争了，把我都弄疼了。”

刚发到一半，我们就已经满头大汗了，想想邮递员叔叔每天骑着车，带着几大包的报纸和邮件，而且这些邮件都是全国各地的，他们每天要跑多少路，是多么的不容易啊，比起他们我们是微不足道的，于是我打起了十二分得精神，又开始去发了。这时一位踩着三轮车收废品的阿姨，看见我们手里一叠一叠的报纸，满脸堆笑的说：“小朋友，把你手里的报纸给我吧，我给你们钱去买根冷饮解解暑。”我心里犹豫不决，给吧，她肯定把报纸当废纸卖掉，社区的人就看不到了，这样就体现不出宣传的作用。最后我还是咬了咬牙，慢条斯理的说：“对不起阿姨，我不能给您。”。说完我们又冒着炎炎的烈日坚持不懈寻找收信箱。树上的鸟儿看着我们“叽叽喳喳”的好像在说：“你做得对。”一张、两张、三张……终于发完了。

通过今天的体验，我才明白邮递员是多么的辛苦，他们持之以恒的精神是值得我们学习的。

One day of summer vacation is a day of community activities。 I had breakfast and arrived early in the community room。

After a while， the communitys teachers walked into the activity room with a heavy bundle of newspapers。 Were wondering， isnt this the time for us to come to the newspaper？ Then the teacher smiled broadly and said， "children， today， let you experience the job of the mailman and send these" north chua "papers to the mailboxes of every household in the community。" With that， the teacher handed out a stack of newspapers to everyone。

I and my classmates wu yumeng and my colleagues sent a newspaper， and we searched each cell for the mailbox of each unit， then ran to carefully put the newspaper in the mailbox of each family。 Look at the boys， like in the box and we rob， all the controls of the newspaper into the box， some newspapers are crumpled， as if to say： "oh， dont argue， hurt me。"

Just sent to a half， we will have full head big sweat， think the postman uncle riding a car every day， newspaper， and mail， with a few big bag and the e—mails are all over the country， they will run every day how many road， is how not easy ah， than we are trivial， so I have the extremely good spirit， to send again。 When a stepping on a tricycle aunt recyclers， see our hands a pile of a pile of papers， grinning of say： "kid， please give me your hand paper， I give you money to buy a cold drink soared。" Im hesitant， give it， she must sell the newspaper as waste paper， the people in the community cant see it， so it cant show the role of propaganda。 Finally I bit my teeth and said， "sorry aunt， I cant give you。" It is。 And then we continued to look for the mailbox in the hot sun。 The birds in the tree look at us and say， "youre right。" One， two， three。。。 Its finally done。

Through todays experience， I realize how hard the postman is， and the persistence of their spirit is worth learning。

With the development of science and technology, our lives have changed a

lot in the past century. Many things that wouldn’t happen before have come into

reality now. Therefore, our lives will change as well in the future. Our pace of

live will greatly speed up, because we will help many machines to finish our

work. Many things can be done autonomously. Therefore, people will have more

time for fun. People can travel the outer space freely. Space shuttle can bring

people to planets far from the earth. Human beings may live in other planets.

Besides, our environment will be much better than now, because some effective

measures are taken to protect the environment. Earth is still a beautiful home

for human.

Summer can be very hot in southern taibei where the temperature usually goes up to 32"C or more. Because of the heat it is a trying experience to go to school or do anything else in a place that is not air-conditioned. Also because of this I stay at home most of the time during the summer vacation and only occasionally go to the beach to plunge myself into the cool water as a way to keep my body less sticky. Actually I like swimming and think nothing is more refreshing than a swim. In the summer vacation that has just ended I went swimming many times with my classmates and we all had a good time. This summer vacation, however, was not spent entirely in seeking fun. As a second-year senior student I had to prepare myself for the college entrance examinations that were only a year away. In other words, I must find time to study, too. So I divided my time between work and play during the summer vacation and derived much benefit from this arrangement.

I spent this summer vacation in quite a different way. I used to run about every day in previous summer vacations, but this summer vacation I simply could not afford to do so. I would soon be in the last year of my high-school education and would after graduation be up against the college entrance examinations. Though those examinations were still a year away, I had to start early to make myself well prepared by reviewing all those things I had learned at school and this summer vacation was the ideal time for me to do this. At first I was rather dismayed at the thought of this, but later I thought it was better this way because by working hard this summer I could count on endless happy summers to come. With this in mind I then set to work like anything and only occasionally went out for a change or did some physical. I was not at all bored by this kind of life, for I was sustained by a hope.

My School Day

I get up at six in the morning. Then I wash my face and brush my teeth. After a quick breakfast, I go to school in my mothers car. It takes us more than half an hour to get there.

We have four hour classes in the morning. I have luch at my grandparents, because their home is nearer to my school.

After two classes in the afternoon, school is over. Then we clean our classroom.

I get home at about half past five. We have dinner at seven. After dinner I do my homework. If I finish my homesork early, I can watch TV for half an hour. I go to bed at half past nine or ten.

Today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood.＇ I choose to be in a good mood. Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or choose 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 I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life."

"Yeah, right. It isn＇t that easy." I protested.

"Yes it is, " Michael said. "Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood. The bottom line is: It＇s your choice how you live life. " I reflected on what Michael said.

Soon thereafter, I left the big enterprise that I had worked in for years to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often though about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it. Several years later, I heard Michael was involved in a serious accident, falling off 60 feet from a communications tower.

After l8 hours of surgery, and weeks of intensive care, Michael was released from the hospital with rods placed in his back. I saw Michael about six months after the accident. When I asked him how he was, he replied, "If I were any better, I’d be twins. Wanna see my scars?" I declined to see his wounds, but did ask him what had gone through his mind as the accident took place.

"The first thing that went through my mind was the well being of my soon-to-born daughter," Michael replied. "Then, as I lay on the ground, remembered I had two choices: I could choose to live or I could choose to die. I chose to live." "Weren’t you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I asked. Michael continued, "... the paramedics were great. They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the operation room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, l read ＇He＇s a dead man.＇ I knew I needed to take action." "What did you do?" I asked. "Well, there was a big burly nurse shouting questions at me” said Michael. "She asked me if I was allergic to anything. ‘Yes,’ I said. The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelled", ‘Gravity’” Over their laughter, I told them, ＇I＇m choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead＇."

Michael lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude. I Learned from him that every day we have a choice to live fully. Attitude is everything.
