WATCH: Why compliments are so important in this world
It's the comment at the end that got us, "Nobody's ever said that..."
As you well know, we are all about sharing in the kindness. And if there's anything in this world that we can encourage, it has got to be spreading an attitude of kindness.
We came across this account on TikTok called La La Land Kind Cafe and we really appreciate the message that they are trying to spread.
They are physically spreading the message of love and kindness on the streets of America. But by sharing it on TikTok it helps pay the message forward and encourage others to do the same.
They have several episodes on what they call 'drive-by kindness', which basically shows them driving around giving very personalised compliments to people walking around.
One of their videos that grabbed our attention had a woman say that nobody's ever told her that.
It got us thinking about the amount of people who not only have never received a compliment, but who are also lonely.
Sometimes we walk around with our preconceived notions of what people are all about. But we actually don't know what the next person is going through.

We have to admit that we are kind of obsessed with this sort of kindness, because not only is it infectious, but it is so heartwarming to see the result of them being kind to strangers.
It just goes to show that with a little patience and the right words, you can change the world.
