Kind words are the most soothing music to the ears.

This woman was trying to buy alcohol at a liquor store.

She was genuinely surprised when the cashier made a random comment that boosted her confidence.

Check out the full story below to find out more.

The lady behind the counter at the liquor store just made my year. And I want to do better because of it.

I go to this liquor store by my house a couple nights a week.

I’m not supposed to drink, but I do.

I stopped drinking for almost two years.

I fell off the wagon when my husband and I got fired at the same time.

Anyway, that’s the backstory.

This woman doesn’t have a stable job and only does DoorDash.

When I went in tonight, it was like she was excited to see me.

As she was ringing me up, she said, “I just have to ask, what do you do?”

I don’t do anything.

I do Doordash right now.

The cashier honestly told her that she looked like someone “impressive.”

I just stop in at the end of the night to grab a couple of shots before home.

She said I look like someone impressive.

She said that I give that air.

Thank you, liquor store lady.

I needed that more than you know.

She highly appreciated the random comment from the stranger.

My husband and I moved here three years ago.

And I have no friends.

He doesn’t even tell me I look pretty anymore.

Are you hiring? Hah.

Let’s read the responses of other people.

This person makes a valid point.

Maybe it’s time to get back on the wagon, says this one.
