#saysomethingniceday
This holiday is intended to combat bullying and the lack of civility and common courtesy that is on the rise among people in today's world. Hopefully, the tradition of saying something nice today will carry over to all tomorrows.
"If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all." Many of us were young, and many of us were told, "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all." We were taught that this is because we say those words, we can't take them back, no matter how true we believe they are. We all know someone whose true nature iskinder than most. We may even want to imitate them more than we do.
Do they give compliments or do they follow this old saying? Perhaps a little bit of both.. But there are some other lessons we can learn from generally helpful people. It's more than saying nice things to others. They truly listen to others and tend to prioritize others over others. It isn't often that they give a compliment. The receiver's sincerity is evident..
Saying something nice day, a nice day
Consider the nicest person you know. Take a cue from them and put one of their best attributes into play. Say something nice about or about someone. For the sheer joy of seeing them smile, bring a smile to someone's face.' According to a nice word, there is no reward other than knowing that someone's day is better because a nice word was used.'
