You know on some days when you do not feel so great about yourself it is the simplest gestures that can make one feel very happy.
yeah I guess that I am girly girl :D sometimes when a smile form a handsome stranger actually works wonders (especially when your hair is rebelling against ya) and a kiss and hug from an old friend even when you're dripping wet and crabby can work wonders. (Thanks Joe!)
Like when you are so late for class and frustrated trying to balance laptop, bookbag , purse and coffee, and wearing heels! and a stranger rushes ahead of you to open the door.
In contrast what I do not get about some people is their absolute refusal to open doors for others and simple task like that. This guy thinks (I am actually thinking of a real person , selfish dude actually) that he's so smart, I wonder if he realises that brains aren't all that it takes? The manly man (yeah right! caveman more like! The grunting a big bad wof isn't in. nor the queer little asshole who is such a nerd that (okay I'll stop on that one;)))
Who knows maybe I am shallow but attitude can turn a frog into a prince and even a Brad Pitt into the biggest loser.
I like having a door opened for me and guess what I do open doors for others and will even wait for the person to come through as well.
Once in New York, I smiled at an old man and said hello, he got angry and asked me what was so good about life that I should smile...
well what reason is there to NOT SMILE?
Today in starbucks the kid asked me about the malt in my coffee, if its good ( I am an addict). you betcha!
Hey try this, keep a straight face and then smile , you can actually feel your self become less tense, it is good for your soul. See how naturally the smile comes ...or if you are reading this smile for me:)
I will smile at an absoulte stranger, Isn't it fun to make small talk with someone in a long line rather than bitch about the length of the line.
Do you ever wonder how a simple action on your path can brighten the day of some passer by and mansifest a little bit of magic into a boring day?
I probably sound like a ditzy teenager, who knows maybe I am.
As a note: I mean chivilary in the broadest sense of the word, as just a simple act of 'niceness' from one human to another, it has nothing really to do with gender roles here
