World Compliment Day


Today is World Compliment Day. The initiative, in contrast to Valentine's Day, Secretaries' Day, and Mother and Father's Days, is not commercially oriented, so everyone can afford to participate. World Compliment Day simply addresses the basic human need for recognition and appreciation. Nobody wins commercially, but everybody gains emotionally.

March 1st is just about consciously reflecting on what someone in your area does well and letting that person know he/she is sincerely appreciated for that. It should be done through words instead of gifts.
