Kaizen Chaos

I was sitting at the bank the other day and this guy, probably in his mid 40s and not creepy looking at all (I swear!), approached me on his way out the door and said “You are a VERY pretty young lady” and simply kept on walking. I normally don’t respond well to compliments like that; they confuse me and automatically throw me into defense mode. I gave him a slight smile instead of a skeptic-evil eye and quietly said thank you.

I sat for a moment and wondered if he had any idea how much I needed to hear something positive at that particular day and time. It helped remind me that I am still my own individual person in this world, I can stand alone and be noticed, and most importantly, YES, I will be okay on my own.
