I was chatting to a couple about the use of plastic and she told me she is in her fifties and remembers shopping with her mother as a child when fruit and veg were sold loose and put into paper bags for taking home. I was agreeing with her when she asked if perhaps I would be too young to remember that. I pointed out that I was probably about 10 years older then her and she professed not to believe me, saying that she thought that I was younger than her! I did suggest that perhaps she needed to visit Specsavers but I thanked her for the compliment and we had a chuckle about it.
Another blogger wrote recently that we should always try to be nice to others and I think it is true that receiving a compliment or a kindness from someone does brighten your day.
It may be a coincidence but I was trying out a new makeup from Avon yesterday. Perhaps I should go and order a truckload now, just in case.
Perhaps you look much younger than your years because you have lived a trouble-free life with little stress. Or could it be that you have always used Oil of Ulay to keep your skin looking youthful?

DeleteI am so with you on acts or words of kindness. Apparently, I am a naturally kind person (I've been told this a lot) but I do try and spread as much kindness as I can on a daily basis. The other person is pleased and/or happy and you, too, feel good. It's a win win situation!

So true. I only wish more people felt the same way!
