Personally, that I'm a great mom. I don't always feel like I am, but my family & dh's think I'm amazing.
Academically, the other day my Lit professor told me that I'm "no slouch in the intelligence area" when I was telling her how I go to John with a lot of literary questions since he has read everything and is brilliant. It's not a staggering compliment, but really made me feel good at the time, since I feel a lot of times that I just don't get it.
It's always nice too when people tell you that you're attractive. I seldom feel that I look good, so when it's said at a time I don't expect it (looking plain or just myself) it's a great lift.

That I was smarter than my brother. (he was suma cum laude at the college we went to).
Unfortunately, our grades didn't reflect my pure genius.

Someone recently told me that he loves how I write.
High praise in my book because he's a published author.

A few years ago when i was in college i went on a Spring Service Project to New Mexico. Our group worked with Habitat For Humanity and worked with another group from Georgia. We were from a Christian school (and all Christians) the other group was not. At the end of the stay a couple of the girls told us that they were impressed with us. They had never met Christians like us. They said they could tell that we actually cared about each other and that we behaved in a more positive manner than anyone else they had met. It was as if we were living the Gospel rather than trying to preach it at them and they could see that clearly in our actions.

When I was taking the group therapy course this summer, our last group meeting was to give positive feedback to each other, and all six of them told me how genuine and compassionate I was and what a great therapist I would be. One of them, who is already a therapist, said if she ever needed one herself she would not hesitate to come to me. I was just blown away by that one.
