Compliments Without Paying Attention to Physical Appearance

Society today has a way of pitting mankind against each other. Whether it’s man vs. man, or woman vs. woman, or man vs. woman it’s become oh to common. Either way people today casually just point out someone’s flaws or indiscretions without knowing the whole story or even knowing the person for that matter. And if we continue on this path we are setting ourselves up for a very dark and bleak future. So I’m taking the initiative and combating this horrible disease we’ve got. Everyone loves a good compliment but rarely do people say things that aren’t a reference to physical appearance. So here is a list of compliments that anyone would love to here without referring to their outfit or amount of makeup on their face.


  1. You’re empowering
  2. I would trust you with my passwords
  3. I bet if Britney Spears knew you, 2008 would have gone different
  4. I bet you’re amazing at chess
  5. Your ideas matter
  6. You call your mom the exact right amount of times
  7. You’re strong
  8. It’s nice to see such kindness
  9. I hope we know each other for a long time
  10. 10. You inspire me to be a better person
  11. 11. You’re so fun to talk to
  12. 12. You have great taste in ___________
  13. 13. You are the moon to my stars
  14. 14. I don’t know how the world would go on without you
  15. 15. You’re a saint
  16. 16. You give Mother Theresa a run for her money
  17. 17. You contributed so much to our group project
  18. 18. You’re an A+ in my book
  19. 19. I didn’t know fanny packs could look this good until I saw you with one
  20. 20. You make me want to be a better Christian

With all these in your head and so many others in your heart, go out and make a difference. Put a smile on someone’s face and “be the change that you wish to see in the world” -- Ghandi

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
