Text a friend about a time they did something they would be proud of that you liked.
"Hey, I was just thinking about that time we were canoeing and you kept saying 'Man these trees are so knotty' it was hilarious!"
"Dude, I've been trying to think of ideas for my own D&D campaign and I don't know how you do it. I always enjoy playing your campaigns"
I live in a condo complex and myself and a few other neighbors grab mail and bring it to peoples doors that are on the way to our units and I go out of my way for one elderly lady. People love it and are super appreciative. I find its good to keep aware of opportunities. The grocery carts were stuck and a lady was having trouble so I got one unstuck for her. At aldi there is kinda a unique little interaction where you give someone your quarter for their cart before they dock it (the carts have a quarter in them to undock) and vice versa. Makes both folks feel nice.
This is a really positive thread thanks so much
