Compliment: Eyes

Who doesn't love compliments?

Everyone loves compliments, and usually people get the same compliment throughout.

Everytime I meet someone, I introduce myself as Honey, working on M.F.A. in graphic design, got my bachelor's in communication and psychology. For some reason or another it leads to how old are you, and I say 20, which concludes in a compliment of "your intelligent." I finished my undergrad in 2 years, which always leads to that compliment. As people know me better, another compliment I always get, "your very mature" (implying that I am very mature for my age). Along with that, I always recieve, "you are very nice" (the fact that I am always helping people, being caring, etc. etc.- part of my nature, nothing I do on purpose for fame)

All my compliments are along lines of nice, caring, compassionate, intelligent, motivated, ambitious, etc...

I think all those are normal qualities that I worked hard towards or is part of my maturity, nature.

One compliment that really makes me happy and I recieve a lot is, "you have the most gorgeous eyes" I have recieved compliments about my eyes from many people. Man and woman, have noticed my beautifule eyes. For the longest time, I thought "yeah, I am Indian, have dark brown, black eyes and so people think I have beautiful, gorgeous eyes"

The last 3 people out of the 30 people who have complimented on my eyes said, "your eyes are beautiful cause your soul is beautiful; eyes are windows to your soul, your soul must be so beautiful that it shines right through your eyes; the reflection in your eyes is from the reflection of your heart" People who have said this to me are people I baerly know. One was an old lady I met at a sweing machine shop. The most random people, along with friends and acquiantances have told me such things.

Out of many compliments I have recieved, these are probably the most valuable to me. Honestly, I am falttered by these compliments.
