My father was always delighted to talk to anybody. As a teenager I found it excruciatingly un-cool when he got into conversations with gas-station attendants, toll collectors, waiters and waitresses, janitors, and unknown passers-by, but I now understand what a wonderful thing it is to meet the world that eagerly, and I find myself emulating his spirit more and more.

Ditto to both parts of that! Never would have thought I'd take on that particular characteristic, personally, as I'm still a confirmed introvert, but I find myself almost 'working the room' like my preacher father and politician grandpa.
