Day 25:
Do you often compliment other people?
If you met a person that was just like you, would you like them? If so why? If not how could you view this person more positively?
When something about someone stands out, I definitely compliment them. I try to remember to do it every day, but some days I guess I just don’t pick up on things. It might have to do with my mood….if I’m stuck in my own head, I guess I’m not too perceptive. I think its important for a compliment to be genuine. I hate it when people compliment you on something, but they really mean the opposite. I find high school girls do this a lot. Thankfully most of them grow out of it, but there are always a few that don’t. I know a few of them. I never take anything they say seriously.
I think if I met a person like me I would like them. The parts I don’t like or think are pathetic about myself are not the parts that show often. I deal with my self-doubt and internal monologue everyday, but it’s not something that is apparent to most people on the outside….or at least that’s what I’d like to think.
