Missed Chance To Korero With Oprah

I don't think I've told you this story before...
At the beginning of last year I had the privilege of hanging with Oprah. Not in any meaningful new BFF way but I was close enough to observe her interactions. Her driver and I were good friends and we were both fascinated to watch how our 'passengers' dealt with their high profiles so we'd stand around our cars while they were filming and swap (appropriate) notes.
One day I walked to the top of a hill they'd been filming on earlier but had moved away from. The scenery was so majestic that I became teary with its overwhelming beauty. I suddenly had a sense someone was behind me and when I turned around, there was Oprah! I became self conscious and mumbled an apology as I swiped away the tears. She said But you're from here aren't you? I said Yes, but from the North Island - we don't have scenery like this up there.
And then I ran away.
It was only recently that I realised Oprah had climbed that hill to spend some time with me but what do you say to someone with such depth and experience that she hasn't heard 16,000 times already? Of course I see now a simple How's your day going? would have been a good start to finding out. When I found out Jordan Peterson was coming to town I didn't think twice about getting a Meet and Greet ticket. I've learnt my lesson - I'm not going to miss another once in a lifetime chance to chat to this spectacularly insightful human who's language I've been rolling around in daily for almost a year.
