What is the best compliment you’ve ever received and from whom?

As someone who grew up in the South, I had a very strong southern accent as a child. Through a lot of dedication, I managed to get rid of it.

One time, while on a meeting, someone asked me where I was from. I told them Tennessee.

They said, and I quote “Oh, really? You don’t have an accent.”

I remember it to this day. Validation.
