I was in line at the John Wayne airport, in Irvine CA, this morning at 5:30 a.m. And while I was ordering a bacon egg and cheese biscuit with a diet coke, suddenly the 7 year old kid next to me briskly swings his head around and looks up at me with shock and awe on his face. His mom snaps at him, "you are not having diet coke for breakfast!" This young man continues to gaze upwards at me with a look of quizzical wonderment. "maybe one day I can do what I want to do, when I want to do it!" he may have thought. He looked into my eyes as though I was his hero. And I believe for that brief moment... I was.
