i was talking about this idea with a friend who awakened me to an entirely new part of appreciation. i haven't accepted it completely, and dont know if i will but i think it's still very interesting. she said that if you need to hear praise to feel appreciated for something that you're doing, then maybe you arent truly happy to do it. is that true?
2. i got the most amazing, inspiring compliment today. it will be really hard to top. someone said, 'you are strong. and it's a very delicate kind of strength. like in a spider web. the strands are so thin but when the wind blows they are flexible and move with it.' it reminded me of another famous quote i've heard that goes 'the strength of a tree lies in its ability to bend'.
this world is full of good people.
