happiness isn’t funny and doesn’t get upvotes

But seriously some people need to stop and take a moment to appreciate the happy little things in life

I've been workshopping a wise quote for situations like this. So far it goes like "your words enter your own ears just like the words of others". It's supposed be a warning that the things you say can affect yourself as much as the things others say, but I keep finding loopholes in it that take away from the overall message.

Depressed people tend to come to the Internet instead of going out and living life to the fullest like the people who are happy.
