Compliments; smiles waiting to happen.

I believe in compliments. 

I believe that everyone out there is fighting their own battle. 

I believe in what goes up must surely come down. 

Recently I foolishly believed for a week or so that you are bound to cry after intense laughter sessions. 

I no longer blindly believe that, but I believe that life is not always a series of high latitude phases, and that some valleys do exist every once in a while. 

I also believe the a nice word, gesture, or even a smile have the ability to propel someone out of that valley for a short time at least onto higher ground. 

Sincere compliments don't cost a cent, aren't hard to get out and mutter, nor do they take time.

If you think someone looks good, tell them. You'll boost their self-esteem. 

If you think someone said something clever, say it. You'll make them feel appreciated. 

If you like someone just let it out. You'll make them feel loved.

If you have something good to say about someone, use your communication skills and send that message across. 

Storing/hiding compliments are no good, they are of no use to you; but can lift someone's mood, and draw a smile on their faces. 

I know, I love getting compliments on a rainy day. 

Spread the love.
