It is a compliment?
Is it an attempt at motivation?
Is it feedback?
My neighbor's mom baked a peach cobbler-type dessert and sent her with an entire pan to walk over to me!
(Yes, we are Southern)
Not only was it the sweetest gesture, it came with a simple, yet moving, note.
One that I needed to hear.
"You are great"
Not "great at..."
Not "doing great..."
Just... me. As a human.
I am great.
She doesn't know me very well. She has no idea the things I'm working on, and definitely has no clue how they are going.
What, I imagine she knew, though, was that those 3 little words would put a smile on face.
(Maybe even a bigger one than the homemade, surprise dessert already brought!)
This is exactly what the world needs more of.
More kindness.
You never know how much a few simple words might mean to someone!
πWhat kind gesture have you seen, done, or been on the receiving end of, recently? π
