Funny, but true

あり得ないことが起こった時、どうしますか？
Christinaが彼女の体験談を語ってくれますが
彼女は自分ではどうしようもない時は
笑って話しをするそうです。
笑うと気分も紛れて、元気がでるんだとか。

Would you like to read about a funny story?
Recently, my hot water stopped working while
I was having a shower. The gas system has
broken down, so for over a week now I have
been having very cold showers. Sometimes I
have laughed at how crazy the situation is,
because it's winter so the experience of having
a very cold shower is so strange. Other times
I've wondered when the gas will be fixed?
When in uncontrollable situations all we can
do is see the funny side of life. It's good to
laugh about events such as the one I've told
you about. Perhaps I'll be laughing for a few
more days until the gas water system is repaired.
Always looking on the bright side of life really
helps to cheer us up when things go wrong.
Try smiling and laughing next time you find
yourself in a funny or challenging situation,
it will help ease your stress!

fix=repare=修理する
uncontrollable=制御出来ない
cheer someone up=〜を元気づける

Expression:
Always look on the bright side of life
=always see the positive in every event of your life
Ease the stress
=relax and try to stop your stress from growing more
