the way the light settles on their eyelashes, their outfit, a wonderful performance, a subtle acknowledgement: trading complements as you pass each other in the bathroom.
sharing the joy others bring to your life is so powerful.
people should always know if you think that their hair looks good today, that they had a really good idea in the meeting, that their shoes are cool, that they are a good friend, that you love them etc.
Recently my favorite compliments to give have been to describe someone by saying βto know them is to love themβ or, after hanging out with a friend, i like telling them that it was the highlight of my day/week/month. of course I only say these things when I mean it. What are some of your current favorite compliments to give?
artifice! processed meat product and stolen buns (liberated from a philadelphian shake shack no less) and yet many things in this world are not even half as beautiful
i cook mine in the style of walter's hot dogs, a restaurant that i have never visited and have been second-hand endeared to by my father.
