compliments

a new nurse gave me a compliment yesterday that i really appreciated.  she said this - "i've been watching you precept that student and i'm really sad that i didn't get a chance in my orientation to be precepted by you.  you seem really smart and calm.  like i would have learned a lot from you."  it was nice.  i enjoy teaching.  and i think i am decent at it.  but to have someone recognize it.  to compliment me.  well, compliments always feel nice.
