When people compliment me, it's important for me to learn to take them in and let them nurture me. In the past, I dismissed or argued with anyone who complimented me. But today, when a kind homeless man told me that I looked "gorgeous" I was able to take it in. I didn't focus on the fact that he hadn't showered or had large cataracts in his eyes. In the past, I would have let such things diminish the value of the compliment. But today, I simply said, "Thank you." Just for today, I can learn to receive a compliment.
