When a stranger goes out of his or her way to say something positive to another human being, it always means something.
It doesn't necessarily mean more than a compliment from a friend or loved one, but it certainly comes close to meaning as much! Because when a person you have no immediate connection to goes out of their way to say something positive, it is pure goodness and openness without want of reciprocation. It makes me feel so much brighter!
Lately, I have been encountering such wonderful energy from people. Usually over the holidays people tend to get wrapped up in themselves and fail to observe what is around them. For some reason I have been placed in a good spot around a particular group of positive people, or perhaps people have grown more positive and I have finally come to realize it.
Thank you for complimenting my specs, my eye make-up, the ring my brother gave me for Christmas, my uber sparkly BCBG skull earbuds, and everything else.
And here is a super cool song that has absolutely no relevance to this story. :)
