Being patted is what it is all about.
I appreciate that something I've done has found a safe place to land.
I've been ignored for 20 years but now it's heartening to get some recognition.
Everybody loves me so much, they just want to carry me around. Sometimes I think to myself, 'When am I going to stand, because I'm being carried all day?'
I wasn't so interested in being paid. I wanted to be heard. That's why I'm broke.
Awkwardness aside, it's nice to be liked.
The air is like being wanted, we say, and they nod approvingly. The air is like getting older, they say, and they touch our arms gently.
Don't forget, a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.
It's nice to be wanted in almost any capacity.
I look at my roommates who are so proud of me that it makes me proud.
Sometimes it's nice to know that what you've done has been appreciated.
