I always try to compliment someone, be it a waitress, a checkout person ( although those are few and far between these days!), someone in line at the grocery store. I know what it feels like to never be told you are looking good, or your hair is nice, or even something cool about your shoes. Saying something nice to someone does several things, first and foremost, it lets the person know they are seen.

We never know what is going on in a stranger’s life ( and sometimes not even in those closest to us). Saying something kind, acknowledging them as a person, may be the one thing in their day that makes it brighter.

I don’t know about you, but my mission in life is to bring a little sunshine into everyone’s cloudy days. Lofty goal? Perhaps. But, I think, necessary.
