This morning while returning from my run, I encountered a
older lady who was also out on her run.
We ran together for a few minutes as she proceeded to tell me that she had met me previously last year out on a run and that it was my small words to her of ‘good on ya’ that caused her to continue her running and progress to a point where she was not only running regularly but also entering short events and fun runs and thoroughly enjoying herself.
Although I did not remember our encounter this ladies kind words only served to prove to me the value of a kind or positive word to a stranger in helping to shape their life and keep them motivated. You never know what impact a few kind words may have.
