Do you give a lot of compliments to people? I don't really but I will when something really really moves me and I really can't help expressing it. What is the best compliment you've ever received? Mine would be when someone told me how unique and charming I am and another was when someone said that I'm so free spirited. Hahahah. Or how my cat always follows only ME! But I guess over all the best would be the one I can give myself. I agree, I am unique, charming, free spirited, and lovable by pets, ahhaa. What compliments would you give yourself?

I try to compliment people as often as I can even if it is for the littlest thing. I find that it is important to do this. I know that I like receiving compliments so why not give them out myself. Kids are the ones that really need them to help build their self-esteem.

Oh and I forgot to add something else!
My voice teacher was a great man. He said not to dwell in trying to correct what is wrong with you. Embrace what is right, he said. Be happy with what is correct and build on that. Then right after that, he said:
Never lack in loving yourself.
He was a wise man and I miss him so much.
Okay I just thought I'd share that little tidbit about my voice teacher! :)

You and I seem to have the same characteristics! Hahahaha
Having moved to the New York lately, a lot of people are surprised at my age. Whenever I say I'm 30, they say that I can't be 30. They're guess would be about 19 or 21. People also think that I'm free spirited and charming.
These are compliments I'd give to myself but I'd want to say more. I believe that telling ourselves what we're good in is like building realities for our future. Like right now, I keep telling myself that I am great at singing. :D

the best compliment i've ever received (and i get this a lot from people) is that i am a good listener. for me it simply means i am easy to talk with and that i pay special attention to people (mostly friends, sometimes casual acquaintances as well) with problems. that i am able to help them unburden and feel a little better.
so the best compliment i'll be able to give myself is that i am a good friend.
