A Compliment

I received the best compliment I've ever been given today. At least, the one that makes me think.
A crew member on the Nickelodeon show I work on said to me today:

"I like the way you are."

Out of nowhere. I response to nothing I did or said. He was an old dude. He was a camera opp on "Starsky and Hutch." He's really old. He said it in that old, maybe gay, wise man way that I only recall from teachers from college. I like the way you are. It's a lovely thing to say, really. There's a lot of people I highly enjoy, but few people I think I could say that to, and really know what I meant. I can't wait to tell all those people.



PS. This was the first picture that came up when I google-image searched "a compliment."
