Screengrabs taken from YouTube video uploaded by shea glover
If you're in need for the perfect pick-me-up after the weekend that flew by in a jiffy and the Monday that arrived too quickly, this is probably it.
Shea Glover, an 18-year-old student from Chicago, created and shared a wonderful video that's creating waves on social media. The video, posted on YouTube about six months ago, shows Shea filming a bunch of her fellow students at her high school - with the camera on, she tells them that they are beautiful. What follows are some of the sweetest, most heartwarming reactions possible.
All she did was tell her subjects, "I'm taking pictures of things I find beautiful." The camera captured the surprise, happiness, awkwardness, even anger in one case, brought on by the unexpected compliment. It's impossible not to smile while watching the video.
Go ahead and make someone's day by telling them they're beautiful. It'll be worth it.
