I will never forget the moment when you complimented me saying how good I was at Maths. You were impressed when I told you that I love Maths. Then you said you hardly know anyone who really loves Maths with this surprise look on your face.
"You're good, you always score full marks," you say.
& "......"
This is exactly what I need, encouragements and compliments despite getting things wrong, correct or even perfect. It's been a long time since people last praised me when I got good marks for my studies. I'm really happy and contented with what I've heard today. Receiving compliments does not mean I want to impress and show anyone what I'm good at. Definitely not showing off or being arrogant, it means acknowledgement to me. Acknowledgement means a lot to me as it keeps pushing me moving forward towards my future, path ahead of me.
You may think that I'm just overreacting or being emotional but I do not care because you do not know me well and what I have been going through my life. You would not believe this, me neither, tears are actually trickling down my cheek while I'm typing this post. And, please DO NOT confront me about this post cause I do not wish to talk about it and also, I believe there is not any much of these to be discussed about. I just wish to express them out so I decided to put them into words so yeh.
For your information, do not just simply give me any compliments when you do not mean it after reading this post. It is not like I'm begging for compliments or whatsoever unless you really really mean it. Besides, getting compliments more often may not be a good thing either, I assume you know why.
Hey you, thanks for today as in helping me with the Maths and finally, the compliments and encouragements. I really need them as they meant a lot to me. You have brighten up and made my day. Thank you.
