Compliments that would make someone’s day

Our words hold so much more power than we imagine. A sincere, heartfelt exchange can give people hope, energy, and joy. It is one of the few things we can use to show others that we care for them and value them. Just as it is for ourselves, other people also take what we say to heart. The negative hurts, the positive uplifts: in spirit, in mood, in self-esteem.

As I grew up, I became busier and busier. I find myself not being able to constantly check up with my friends or spend as much time with my family. I am sure many of you could probably relate to this.

However, I express my love for them through my words whenever given the chance. If a friend is doing something amazing, I made sure to let them know that I was proud. If I happened to realize something off about a friend, I made sure to stay with them until they’re okay. If a loved one is struggling, I made sure to let them know that they’re not alone. I hope we can all show care through our words.

I also realized how happy I get when I got compliments from other people. I believe that we don’t spend enough time recognizing our beauty and sometimes it really does take that person to say “hey you bring such positive energy into the room” to make you realize that you’re more than the awkward person you think you are. So if you can, help other people see their beauty. Next time you find an amazing quality about someone, let them know, and maybe you’ve just made their day !
