Today I was filling up my car with petrol when a guy walked by and said, “Hi Gorgeous!” Without thinking I replied, “Hi.” I looked up, and then immediately thought - was he even talking to me? There was no one else around, so yes, it was me he was talking to. “You look beautiful today,” he continued. And I frowned at him, looked away, mumbled to myself “ummm, okay” then began thinking – what does he want? Is he trying to be funny? Annoying? Trying to pick me up? Of course there was no such underlying meaning to his comments. I am beautiful, he was reminding me! He was being kind. How quick I was to judge him for saying something lovely, to which I should have grinned and replied, “thank you! Have a great day!”
