it wasn’t that i disagreed with it, but being in an environment where compliments are far too often used as a tactic on the unsuspecting, it certainly stopped me in my tracks.
it’s not everyday someone freely dishes out an adjective that so accurately characterizes you in a manner that, just hearing it, reminds you and reassures you that you actually just might be that person you’ve always been. you could even say it only happens once in a blue moon.
anyway, in a time when i would, more often than not, identify and describe myself with its antonyms, it was a refreshing surprise.
thanks friend.
