Yesterday at work, I was just swiping some cards at the cashier station at Subway, smiling and thinking about how wonderful and funny life is. When ALL OF A SUDDEN a customer turned to me and said, "Has anyone ever told you that you have a beautiful smile?"
I was kind of taken aback. I replied, "Uh...Yea...maybe once or twice."
To which he then replied, "Well you should keep smiling!"
I think I'm going to smile forever now.
Thank you random, kind citizen! How I love you! And how I love that your words made my day 100% better.
There is such power in the words we use! I have a great friend who tells me "Whenever I think of a compliment for someone, I have to say it! I just can't hold it back!" Let's all choose positivity and kindness. And in this process of giving and receiving kind words-- it'll do the heart some good--makes us feel a little bit happier! It's like a drop in the bucket of happiness.
This is my challenge for all y'all reading this blog-- compliment a stranger today. Don't hold it back. Even if you feel weird. I'm grateful that my Subway friend didn't!
Are you gonna do it?
I'm being serious.
Do it.
Please.
It's kind of addicting actually.
