Would you please tell me something nice?

Question

I feel sorta down right now, and I could use a good word. You're gonna get reported if you say anything weird, creepy, or involving sex, so don't even try it!!!!

Answer 1

The other day I went to the store, I saw a little boy that wanted to buy his Grandmother a new hat & scarf, he only had $20.00. The lady in the store wouldn't even talk to the boy, I'd say he was 10 or so. I heard what he asked and looked at my daughter and said to her, I wish I could help him, She said "You can." I looked at her eyes and saw a look I had never seen before. She cared for someone else for once. You see she is 14 years old. She reached in the bag she had and pulled out a scarf, hat and glove set she had purchased for herself. She handed it to the boy and said, " Please give this to your grandmother and tell her it is from her secret admirer and Santa Clause." I listened to her with tears in my eyes, and said, "Wow, have you grown up." She smiled and said, "No I didn't!'" I thought he needed them more. Besides, they were for you." That was the proudest moment of my life.

Answer 2

You woke up this morning, and it may have been cold, rainy, foggy, muddy, or otherwise crappy outside; but you were blessed to have been given another day. Yes you are getting older, but that's better than the alternative. The sun will come out tomorrow. Every cloud has a silver lining. Am I on the right track. Sometimes you have to BREAK IT DOWN TO BASICS. You are alive, you have enough of your faculties to use a computer, you are smart enough to reach out to others when you feel you need to, you must have a roof over your head and functioning electric service in your home. There are people that don't have that!!! Are you hungry? Do you have clean clothes that fit? Can you sleep in a safe, warm bed at night? If everything ELSE seems bad or makes you sad...go look at some websites documenting the situation in Dafur...I am not suggesting that you take pleasure or comfort from the suffering of others....but there are worse situations to be in. Go do something you ENJOY...make yourself get up, get off the computer and take a walk. Go to the pet store and pet some puppies. Smile at someone on the street for no reason. Open a door for someone. It'll be alright. If you have serious concerns about being blue or are "blue" for too long, call your doctor and ask to be screened for depression.

Answer 3

Wow! You need to chill out (maybe with a pop icicle). You are such a nice person I don't understand why you are feeling down. Take a look outside and see the beauty of the trees and the grass and how great it is to be alive. You know I work with computers everyday all day long. I had a crappy sounding password and I had to use it about 50 times a day to log in to do some kind of work. I have changed my password to something positive and my attitude change. I'm also going to teach you a trick I learned. It may sound kind of crazy but it works. Take a pencil or pen and holding it in your mouth like a dog carries a bone. Push it way back so it forces your mouth into a smile. Leave it there for about 10 minutes and I'm telling you you will feel better.

Answer 4

Desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons,
they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself.
Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment
it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be,
and whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.

You are loved.

Answer 5

remember the soul would have no rainbow if the eye had no tear.

Think of a Rainbow, beatiful right? well what do you need to make one? the sun...and the rain, but it always brightens up again, the more rain and sun, the brighter the rainbow...corney but you have to have the "bad" to appreciate just how wonderful the good is.

Also go outside and look at the stars, or the trees for one mintue solid. Then see how you feel, you can't feel down when you look up - it's true!

Answer 6

I care about you and I hope you will feel better soon.

Look at all the answers you got, a lot of people care about you.

I won't tell you that you have to feel good because you have more stuff or are more privileged than the poor people of this earth, because I'm sure even the richest person in the world has to feel down sometimes.
I won't tell you what to do...

You're a beautiful person and next time you feel good again, take a moment to savor it.

Answer 7

Well let's see now. How to cheer someone in the depths of the doldrums.
Why not look around your immediate surroundings, i'm sure there's something to curve your lips about.
Could it be the picture on the wall? or the torn bit of wallpaper you've been meaning to paste back? Or maybe it's the fact you've an answer to your question...after the umpteenth time looking to see if anyone had answered in the 3 minutes your question has been up?

Answer 8

Thank you for asking. It takes a little bit of bravery to let strangers know you're feeling down, and a little more to ask for a good word or two.
You're not alone, and you are among friends here at Answers.
Have a good day today, tomorrow, and always.
Take care of yourself. You're worth it.

Answer 10

A good word, just one? How about BLESS you. That is two but it has meaning. I once seen a person who stopped and gave a dollar to another person down and out, this led to me giving two dollars to another needy person. I received double
the satisfaction from doing that deed. The sun will always shine the next day, tomorrow.
