I like this if for only I can relate, though it also holds some truth to it.
I don't particularly care for doling out or receiving compliments at all because I do think a sizable portion of kudos are given rather capriciously and too forward at times. You just met me, and you want to tell me how smart I am? Right.

The best compliment I can give is to myself, my family, and my friends, one in which we regard ourselves at truly content and happy in the presence of one another. And if that should change and one should move away, we become sad until the time we should see them once again. That's my ideal compliment.
