What is something somebody said to you that made your day?…made you glow?

I went for a run the other day and along the way passed a 9 or 10 year old boy on his bike who was riding towards me. I apparently impressed him in some way because after we passed he stopped, turned around, and with the most innocent and curious tone called out, “Are you going to be in the Olympics someday?”. His question made me glow. I had a childhood dream of being in the Olympics, so when I heard his comment, I immediately connected to this deeply rooted dream and it made me feel so good inside. It still lights me up just thinking about it. I excelled in Track and Field as a child, but not so much as I got older, so my Olympic dreams got left behind in my childhood. But in this little boy’s eyes, I looked like an Olympic athlete…and in that moment, my Olympic dream came true:)
