this is A life hack I learned at age 6 when I complimented a grocery store clerk’s earrings and she blushed. Now I implement it every chance I get. People really like when you notice the style choices they made, the small ways they arrange themselves, their nails, jewelry, etc. It feels good to be seen. Feels obvious but true

I’ve always had struggles starting/maintaining conversations, so when I was in college, I would find something to compliment a stranger on (typically a cashier or someone I had to talk to) because I remembered how good I felt when I unexpectedly got a compliment from someone. When I myself became a cashier at a coffee shop, it was a really nice way to make someone feel good if they looked bored or upset. It also helps with awkward silences. I still do it when I can or when the situation calls for it, and it’s so nice to see people react and smile.

Gazpacho only in the late summer, persimmons only in the winter, etc. just because we can import anything from anywhere anytime doesn’t mean we should. Nothing is special if you can have it whenever you want it.

no podcasts no music no earbuds… sometimes it’s nice to not listen to anything and just let yourself be raw in the world for a bit
