A Kind Word

Sometimes all it takes is a kind word to turn a person's day around. One of my receptionists has been having a hard time with our new doctor. The girl is the sweetest person I have ever met. She has a kind way with everyone she speaks to. She does a great job. While it may take her a few times to understand a request that a doctor gives her, once she understands it she will do it perfectly from that point on. The new doctor has no patience with her and has decided to hate her. I do not think she liked her from the moment she saw her. The girl is stunningly beautiful and some people find that intimidating. Maybe this doctor was an outcast at school and has a vendetta against the pretty "cool" girls. Her nastiness is getting to the receptionist and she is making mistakes due to the stress of trying so hard to please someone. Yesterday I made a bracelet for her that says, "I am beautiful, awesome and talented. I am simply the best at being me". She almost cried when she saw it because I was validating all of the good in her. Just those few words made a huge difference in her day.
