A simple praise or compliment can make someone's day.
Don't hesitate to say "Thank you, you're so nice" to someone.
Words are easy, it won't cost you anything.
You may never know if someone had a bad day at work,
a simple compliment from you can lift their spirits up.
Y'know Singaporeans are not fond of complimenting each other.
I wonder why?
In western culture they throw in "awesome", "fab", "great" into every sentence.
Here, it's like it hurts to even say "good morning" to a bus uncle.
Just recently, I read a message from a friend I met during work.
He travels a lot for business & there's once when he met Anne hathaway (one of my fav movie star) and other celebrities in the hotel he's booked in.
& I tweeted about how lucky he is to meet them...
He replied;
Though I know I'm far cry ugly if compared with Anne hathaway,
but it's still feel nice to receive a compliment!
So thanks a lot Nick!

Say "Good morning" to the bus uncle who drive you to work/school everyday.
Say "Thankyou" to the auntie who serve you lunch.
& Say "I love you" to your parents while wishing them "Goodnight".
p.s// It's not that I am bored/lame so I blog up this post,
I really felt the urge to talk about this "praise culture" that we are lacking :(
