A 92-year-old man is moving into an assisted living home after his wife of 70 years passed away. As a staff member shows him to his new room, the man expresses that he already likes it, despite not seeing it yet. He explains that he chooses to be happy each day and sees things positively rather than focusing on physical limitations. The man believes that happiness is something we decide in advance and that our outlook depends more on our perspective than external factors like furniture. He advises depositing happy memories in our "bank account" to withdraw from in later life.
