A nice complement

While I was waiting for the doctor this morning, I received a nice complement from one of the staff members. (I've been awake since 3 a.m., have horrible bags, and am now tired.)

She came up to me and said,"You are always smiling and happy. That is so nice! I like it when you come in because you just brighten up my day!"

I replied,"Thank you." which is progress because I am horrible at accepting complements, from a friend, my boss, or complete stranger (guy or girl).

That was nice to hear and I hope she knows that she brightened my day.
