One night, I shared an elevator with a woman who used a motorized chair. She started a conversation that went something like this:

“I apologize for the scarf. My hair is in curlers.”

“No need to apologize. You look good.”

“I feel good.”

The elevator slowed and stopped, and the door opened. She added, “I hope you have a nice evening.”

I stepped out. “Thank you. I hope you do, too.”

“I’m planning on it!”

Her smile followed me home. I will always have it.

Why not plan something you can do today to shine bright?
