Compliments
Oct. 22nd, 2001 11:58 amNobody knows how to give a good compliment anymore. "You're a nice person" or "You're smart" or "You're funny" are nice to hear, I suppose, but how much thought went into them? We're all unique individuals, so we deserve unique strokes, I'm thinking.
I bring this up because I received the most amazing compliment just a week or so ago.
My friend Pam and I went out to eat up in Buckhead. We ate, talked about movies, hashing, the places we've lived. She gave me some advice about women and I helped her with a situation with a guy.
The next day she sent me an email which included the following line:
"It's very easy to spend time with you, Glenn."
Such a simple statement, yet so warm and flattering, and it practically glows with sincerity. I'm still giddy.
