Affirmation for May 17, 2010: Compliments
There is no effect more disproportionate to its cause than the happiness bestowed by a small compliment.- Robert BraultThought of the day:You may have heard the phrase, "nothing in life is free," but today, you can make that phrase completely untrue. A sincere compliment, one that was not asked for, but given freely, can move mountains when it comes to someone else's self esteem. When was the last time you gave your brother, sister, friend, son, daughter, spouse, or co-worker a random and sincere compliment?Today, give out a free, honest compliment and see the happiness that is repaid one hundred-fold to both you and the receiver.Have a great day, amazing readers! :)TeamDS

There is no such thing as a small act of kindness. Every act creates a ripple with no logical end. Anonymous.-- Your affirmations are kindnesses. thanks.
I always randomly complement people. Ever since, when I was small, I heard a story telling how one kind word or smile can make someone\'s day. I wanted to be important enough to effect a person\'s whole day positively.
