“Have
a
good
day!”
You
see
this phrase so often
at the
chat room and we
hope you don’t find
this
a
beleaguered expression.
After all, what’s wrong
with
“Have a
good day”?
It springs from
a long
line of expressions
of
good
will.
“Good-by or Good-bye”
is no less an
invocation of good will, being a
contraction of “God be with
you”.
Would
those
who
belittle
“Have
a
good day” also
scorn
“Good night”? We think
there are more of
us
than there
are
of them – more of us
who think it’s great
that
the
chatters
say
“Have a good day”,
“Good-bye”,
“Good
night”,
and
all
other goody
greetings
to one another.
So,
go
ahead, let’s
make each
other’s
day and
night!
Say it! Say it with DT
pride!
