Kindness and a Well-Timed Compliment

“The happiness of life is made up of minute fractions – the little, soon forgotten charities of a kiss or a smile, a kind look or heartfelt compliment.”
~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge

There are compliments that you just shrug off and then there are those that arrive with perfect timing.  For example, a woman I know had to speak at an event and just before she had to speak, someone complimented her outfit.  And while the speaker knows that clothing does not make the woman, her confidence did go up a notch.
