A Map of Places in the US with the Same Name
I noticed when we lived in the Bay Area, a lot of cities had the same name of other, more popular cities.

I immediately thought of that fact when I came across this site.

I know I have a hard time accepting compliments and expressing gratitude. It’s mostly because I don’t want to seem full of myself or boastful. I have started to come around due to my wife, Mary, since she believes accepting praise, gifts, and compliments leads to more.
I can also see how, when done right, expressing gratitude publicly aka sharing your wins, can help inspire people as well.
