Today I received a wonderful compliment. My Canadian friend from accounting told me after class: "You are always so classy, you wear dresses and skirts and always look good. I just wear t-shirts and shorts, I feel lazy." He was super sweet in saying so, I strive to look classy, well and be classy in general. I explained to him that I like dressing up, because at work, I don't get to look cute and "classy," I just wear t-shirts and checkered chef pants. It really made my day for him to say that to me, plus it is nice to know that men think such kind things.
I try to always share compliments that I think to myself, because you never know who's day you are going to make! (Or who you will weird out- haha) One of my neighbors said to me in passing last week, "Gosh, you have beautiful hair! I wish I could grow my hair that long, wow, beautiful hair.." It was completely unexpected but certainly appreciated and welcomed. She and I have never exchanged conversation. When I walk by and actually see her, she is usually in her Honda jamming out to Metallica or Slayer with her electric guitar, sitting in the drivers seat. It really brightened my day. Compliments from strangers are the best, because they are sincere and not expected or forced. Just from the heart.
Go out and share some kind, sincere thoughts and compliments people! Let's spread some joy and love to those who need it or don't expect it.
