Is it normal to want to tell complete stranger i see to "have a wonderful day"?

I don't mean, "Hey, bro have a good day", then walk off leaving them confused. I mean to actually throw fear to the wind and speak to perfect strangers and tell them, "It's alright. Whatever you're going through will pass as long as you keep living. Good times will be short and few but I'm sure that promise will come come true. I know this is true because I've had my share of sucky years. They aren't as bad of yours. Trust me. I know. Your life is tougher and I respect you for that."

To my honest opinion you bloggers are going to lie to yourselves. Even I'm lying to myself because I don't know if I would do it everytime but I feel like I want to when I see someone serving food look down I try to make them laugh. I don't think I'd put my life at risk to spread the message. I'm not a saint. I'm a mean person. If I was allowed I'd push someone over but then I'd apologize for doing something so selfish.

    Sounds like just being friendly and nice to me. I have a similar thing though, I often want to compliment strangers but am scared they will think I'm hitting on them or feel creeped out.

      Don't let your fears get in the way of being human. Most will politely say, "thank you" and move on through their lives without a second thought.

      >_> I'm not the most friendly person out there. Neither the most social. I just had a random freaking urge to tell someone that (from the safety of my couch).

      Being friendly to people you know is different from confronting complete strangers. That's why I ask. I get the gut feeling that most would keep their nose down and quiet rather than spend energy and emotion to wish someone well.

    Down here almost everyone says "Good morning, afternoon or evening" to each other. I really like it and it makes me feel good saying it.
