World Compliment Day

On World Compliment Day, people show extra appreciation to those they come into contact with, by paying them with sincere personal compliments. According to the creators of the day, each participant is to give compliments to at least three people. The holiday contrasts with some other major holidays in that it is not commercially oriented, but emotionally oriented. Thus, everyone can afford to participate, and everyone comes out ahead. It is a day about the human need for recognition and appreciation that we all have. There was first a "National Compliment Day" that was held in the Netherlands, but the creators of the day decided it should go worldwide, and had the goal of making it "The Most Positive Day in the World." So, they started World Compliment Day in 2011.
