A story of a girl!

It was a bright sunny Saturday afternoon, my husband came home from the grocery store and said get ready we got to go to a wedding 👰🏻. All I knew was he wasn’t willing to go alone. An American wedding, so I picked a simple casual summer dress, did a little make up and rushed to the Venue. I was thinking of the outfit all the way while we reached there. My outfit bothered me as this was the first time, I was attending such a diverse wedding. My confidence was low no doubt, but we kept heading to the main hall where the wedding was going to take place. This one little beautiful curly headed girl 12-13 yr. old along with her 2 friends (whom I saw around at the wedding Venue a couple of times) was just passing by, stopped and said, “you look beautiful”. Her friend uttered almost immediately “I love your curls”. I don’t know if it was a genuine one or they read my body language which was convincingly under confident, but those two lines gave me a feeling I belonged there. I started to feel myself as someone other than my husband said I looked good. Just 3 words boosted my confidence back to level 10. I was back into my own skin and thoughts. We enjoyed the wedding, food thoroughly. The bride and groom danced to some beautiful mashups too 😊. We made some new friends and spent a quality evening.

Throughout these 3-4 hrs. of the event time, I think the part of complimenting just with me like forever, because it certainly elevated my confidence. My theory here of making the other person (in above case it’s me) feel good is important as it may just help someone to gather their self-back up. And what do the person loose (the one who is complimenting)?? Absolutely nothing 😊🙏🏻

So, compliment people as much as you can, no matter how silly it may sound but do your part and the world will follow you 😊
