It's cliche I know, but it really can make someone's day. If you do this enough, you could make an unlikely friend, and those can be the best kind. Specifically, because the friendship would be based purely on a chosen connection and not circumstance.

complimenting strangers is such a fulfilling experience thats adds some positivity to both you and a strangers day, i think a lot of people are afraid of the other person thinking that they're weird or smth but how many times have you received a passing compliment and thought it was weird prolly not very often not to mention you'll prolly never see them again and you only live once

I’ve always had struggles starting/maintaining conversations, so when I was in college, I would find something to compliment a stranger on (typically a cashier or someone I had to talk to) because I remembered how good I felt when I unexpectedly got a compliment from someone. When I myself became a cashier at a coffee shop, it was a really nice way to make someone feel good if they looked bored or upset. It also helps with awkward silences. I still do it when I can or when the situation calls for it, and it’s so nice to see people react and smile.

Assume by default that people like you. Understand that people thinking and behaving differently is a beautiful display of how life shapes us. When in doubt, assume the best intentions of those around you because you would want the best assumed of yourself.

Control your reaction. Re-assess your outlook. Compose your thoughts. Giving yourself a moment to think through whatever situation is in front of you can make a big difference and will let you be a calmer person overtime.

Do the things that make you happy and take pride in being a part of communities of like-minded folks. It can really be anything, as long as it brings you fun and friends. What makes a hobby "real" is the connection to life that you find when doing it. Having a few hobbies that keep you active, connected, and creative will greatly improve your relationship with life.
