It's natural for many people to feel as if they being dwarfed among this extravagant world. So many things are happening that it becomes a challenge just to keep up with the global issues. Let's take a step back though, how do you feel among your social circle? Are you still feeling dwarfed? Is everyone achieving what they want? While you're still running in circles?
I know that there are many people who do feel this way. I did, actually, I think I still do. I was skimming through chat logs with a particular friend of mine and I came across a pair of compliments they (gotta cover their gender in case it becomes obvious!) directed towards me. Their choice of words, the meaning behind them - they embraced such positive connotations. And the thing is, they were directed towards me. Plain old me. Nothing special. Just a teenage girl trying to figure out who she is, like the rest of them.
As I was recording those words in my diary, I couldn't help but grin. This person really told me that I was worthy of something, that they wanted me in their life. It was, really, an amazing feeling. It was just that feeling of being something more than you thought you were. Something valuable. And you become that much more grateful of the person who said it.
Everyone yearns for that kind of feeling, everyone, absolutely everyone. No matter how beautiful they are, how amazing, or famous. It can't be believed unless it's been said. And I believe that every one deserves to be complimented. And they should have a compliment which they can categorise as being their favourite and ultimately memorise it. Because everyone has a heart, a brain and blood flowing through them - we're all equal. We deserve the same love. Coming from the ones who we love.
And those compliments from that friend remain my favourite until this very day. It's been almost two years. Not on compliment tops it.
Oh, and if you know it's you I'm talking about, I love you!
