All of these things are indeed acts of kindness, Denise. I've always complimented people when I sincerely like something about them (hair, clothes, nails) but with masks and distancing, I got away from it. Now, even with a mask and from a distance, I will compliment someone. I was (re)inspired when I saw a video recently where people were doing so from a car--with the window rolled down of course! The reactions from the people who received a compliment ("That's a great color on you!") were so genuinely delighted and pleased. It gave me a lift just watching their expressions.
