Feel Good Friday: Have a Beautiful Day

Yes, it’s Valentine’s Day weekend, but whether you have a honey or not, don’t you know people (friends, family, male or female) who are just plain beautiful? I have friends who seem to glow from within—their energy is of beauty and light.

I saw the first video on Facebook (shocker) when one of my beautiful friends posted it (possibly Jennifer M?) It makes me cry every time I watch these people being told they are beautiful. In most cases, their faces light up, and it changes their whole persona. Since I saw this a few weeks ago, I’ve started looking at the people around me when I’m out and about and, if I see something about them that I genuinely like I let them know. Not in a creepy, stalker way, but I’ll tell them that I like a coat or scarf or hair color or purse. People react in a similar way to the video—they pause and smile, and it makes what they’re wearing all the more attractive.  

The second video is a song just to put you in the mood for the above exercise. I’m not really a 1D fan, but the carpool karaoke with James Cordon is just too good not to post. It will definitely make you smile. And, truly, the complete 13 minute segment is worth watching on YouTube, if you have time. 

It takes only a few seconds to make someone feel better and to make you Feel Good, too. Try telling someone he or she is beautiful this weekend—or that you like his or her shoes—and see even more beauty shine through.
