"Have a happy life, despite everything!"

Today at work after helping a man get some lunch, he said to me,
“Have a happy life, despite everything!”

I have been replaying that phrase over and over in my head all day.
He didn’t say, “Have a good day”, or “take care”, he said, “Have a happy life.”
I like the idea that one should be happy not only that day, or tomorrow, but for LIFE!

And “Despite everything.” To learn to be happy DESPITE what trials I may have, despite what sadness is in the world, despite how I may be feeling to just BE HAPPY!

A simple phrase that’s merit deserves attention.
(At least in my life.)
