Happiness, according to the Oxford English dictionary, is based on luck or good fortune. Joy on the other
hand, is described as a vivid emotion of pleasure. Thus, happiness depends on 31 ; joy, on our emotional
well-being.
If you know joyful people, you will probably notice common traits among them. Joyful people are often
healthy, both 32 and mentally; they value strong 33 relationships, and they don’t allow the
extremes of life -- sudden highs or sudden lows -- to 34 them too much. Joyful people lead a more stable
life. But these abilities do not just arrive; they have to be worked at.
Teaching ourselves to be joyful may be one of the greatest things we can do to enhance our 35
health. However, it is important to understand that joy is an emotion that arises from within us and is not 36
by the things that happen to us. Instead of looking for external things to provide happiness in our lives, we must
37 to find the joy within. We must educate ourselves about joy and work to enhance it in our lives. One way to
start is to make a 38 to wake up every morning and find joy in our lives. Think about a special person or
a 39 pet. It is our choice to be joyful or fearful. Let’s take the time to train ourselves to be 40 --
our lives will be both happier and healthier for it.

running ____42____, but then two things happened. First, a girl I met one day told me she was ____43____ for a
“super,” referring to a 52.4-mile double marathon. Then, the next day I went on my longest run — 15 miles. To be
honest, I ____44____ it! Between the girl making my ____45____ seem small and the pure boredom of jogging,
I decided that the only ____46____ I’d ever run again is if a big dog was running after me!

to San Diego to visit my sister. While she was at work one day, I ____49____ her bike and went for a ride. The
____50____: The roads there went through large valleys where I’d be riding uphill for miles at a time. I’d never
faced such ____51____. That day, I got ____52____ by about 100 “local” bikers who were used to such roads.
When I got back home, suddenly riding my bike didn’t seem quite as ____53____.

have to be my own.
