Anyone who thinks they can be happy every second of every day for their entire lives…

They’re setting themselves up for a lifetime of disappointment. 

Things won’t work out like they’re supposed to.

You’ll lose a job, a pet… Or a loved one.

It’s better to strive for happiness in as many moments as you can while expecting to have disappointments, setbacks, and heartache. 

Don’t delude yourself into thinking you can be happy all the time.

But at the same time, live an optimistic life. Expect things to work out in your favor and often, they will.

The Universe conspires to help us when we make the decision to act.
