I like when other people feel appreciated; to give a resource that is given without cost? Except it is not anything actually given, but shining light on values already existing. Perhaps it is digging in someone to find jewels or oil and then letting them know that they have it. It is more than just complimenting though because appreciation is noting the value of actions performed on a small or large scale. Compliments are merely about attributes or potential. Therefore appreciation is the true recognition of being a good person.

However there is anti appreciation? What happens when you find something about someone that is a weakness or ugly? Rebukement I suppose is the name, and again it is more than just an insult. Insults point out weaknesses on the whole, which is deflating because what can you do about that? Rebuking is isolated to an action or aspect and counteractions can be taken to limit them.

Anything negative can be hurtful though, and many people like the compliment sandwich (compliment-insult-compliment), but I think it should be the appreciation sandwich. Either that or just appreciate people all the time and then when they need rebuking, they will know your intentions are good.

Oh bloggy blog I appreciate how well you listen! Sometimes you crash on me when I am trying to upgrade, but we both can work on that. I love how I can search you too and reread our conversations. I wish you all the best and hope to keep in touch more! … and do more proof reading! I’ve been sloppy lately (could be due to the time I write these)
