It's amazing how a compliment can go so far. Compliments should be given out more freely among the people you encounter. They truly make a difference and can make someone's day more than you may ever know! It is so amazing how gestures and thoughtfulness goes so far. At least for me it goes above and beyond anything monetarily. I'll never forget this day about 2 years ago...I was running around my neighbourhood and this woman was walking her dog. She stopped me and said " I want to look JUST like you".That compliment has never left me. It wasn't because I wanted to hear that or needed to hear that it was the matter of fact that one person thought that way about me. So many thoughts ran through my head as I stood there thinking how hard I always am on myself -work my body so hard for what? to look like everyone else? No, yes, maybe. But that's not me...and thinking I see myself as a working progress while another person idolizes who I am. That compliment reminded me to be thankful for what I have and what makes me who I am. It made me want to be more appreciate of myself. And most importantly ever since that day more than ever I am free of judgement and cling to those who are just like you and I.
Always stay true to who you are and never change those little things that make you who you are. Most importantly strive not to be perfect or what you think is perfect. Find that person that see's those things that differentiates you and loves those things about you. Guess what...It's out there. And I know.. and I am experiencing it right now. I can tell you my insecurities are the things that no one else has. I have a funny hairline, I have a dimple below my eye, I am athletically built curvy and spicy, I exude confidence that I don't even know, I pour passion that I don't even realize. I have only been waiting to find that person that loves those things about me. Because..deep down inside those are things that I love about myself and makes me, me. If you find someone who see's those as your best attributes they see you for you and nobody else.
