Porte Musings:
Some days need no further explanation. Today is the International Day of Zero Tolerance to Female Genital Mutilation.
Celebrate Pay-a-Compliment Day. Try giving compliments. It costs you nothing, but could mean the world to someone else. According to Womanly Skill there is a correct way to give a compliment. So practice this until it is second nature:
- Consider the context. You can compliment anyone as long as you keep your words situation-appropriate.
- Be sincere. The recipient will sense when you aren’t being honest.
- Be specific.
- Focus on essence, not appearance.
- Be generous.
Always celebrate food. Today is National Frozen Yogurt Day, so be certain to have a frozen yogurt today. 😉
