Comment on Anon calls Domino's
dohpaz42@lemmy.world 1 week agoThis. I’ve been feeling shitty this past week, and there was a woman at the grocery store who made sure to tell me to have a wonderful rest of my day, simply because I moved a shopping cart out of her way (she was in one of those motorized carts I assume because she probably has a hard time walking). It was like a light switch on my mood.
That is to say, we need more people like that lady, who genuinely want people to have a good day and unknowingly make people feel better for just being nice.

I have a simple rule - if someone makes me feel something positive, I tell them. It started when I was hanging out with friends downtown and a girl ran up to compliment my shoes, then immediately walked off. It felt great, especially because she left before I could wonder what her angle was
So now, I make a point to speak up. If someone says something funny I overhear, I tell them I thought so. If I think they had a cool shirt, I say so. Then I just go back to my own business
