I could not accept a compliment until later in my adult life. I treated compliments like a rally in tennis. Yes, how I viewed my self worth was at the core. The first time I replied Thank You felt magical! And I appreciate your observations today (as always) on your life journey. 🙏🏽
We build our own mountains and ask ourselves to climb each one. Mark Twain once said, “It makes me uncomfortable when people praise me. I’m afraid they’re not going to say enough.” So glad you run… and write!
I believe your right. Now that I'm aware of her voice I do make the shift in the right direction easier and faster than before! How I was suffering. I notice I still have work to do but I'm growing. Thank you Clark.
What a wonderful compliment to you and your stylist. :) Oh my gosh, I have not seen this guy! I'm laughing so hard, he's amazing and I could learn from him. Thank you Gail for sharing. :)

Hi Gary, I resonate with this. I can now accept a compliment and feel good about it. :) And isn't it great to say thank you... and that's enough.
Have a Thankful Thursday.

This is an interesting Mark Twain quote that I have not heard. Thank you for sharing here with us Gary.

Jules, continue to do the right thing without expecting the same in return…
This is everything! Thank you Clark. I will.
Yes, this is everything. It will end much individual suffering and maybe it will hasten Aunt Phoebe’s final departure.

I sent this text to my stylist:
-- I was walking into Ulta today and woman about my age said, “You’re hair is so great!”
I replied, “Thanks. That’s really kind of you to say.”
She said, “I wasn’t being kind. I’m speaking the truth!”
Thank you! ❤️--
And have you seen this guy?

I used to be too shy to compliment people. But they don't know until you tell them.
Thank you for sharing Claudette...I see you have grown out of your shyness, you always give such wonderful compliments here. xoxo Thank you!
