These moments of human kindness and connection are SO special! I've been feeling optimism starved and this post was a boost of delight. And I'm genuinely in awe of your Focusmate connections (and hats?!)--I really need to step up my celebrations on there.
I love this! Several years ago, I started a personal "Say It" campaign. If I'm thinking something nice about someone, I say it. It's sometimes scary to blurt out a compliment to a stranger, but I've been so enriched by the resulting interactions. You can truly tell by people's smiles that you've lifted their spirits. And it makes me appreciate even more the times it happens to me because I understand the courage it takes to say it. :')

"Optimism starved" is such a powerful expression. Glad to offer a little dose of delight. (Written while in a Focusmate)
This is so delightful! My friend just set the same SNL photo as my contact picture and it makes me feel equally seen and loved 🥰
That's so charming, Danielle! What fun.

I *love* this campaign! What a delightful approach.
I thought of you when I rolled down the car window to tell a woman (who I'd just waved across the street) that her colorful outfit was awesome.
Yay!!!
Borrowing your campaign!!
Hooray!
