I wish to be like that

Today, I passed by a guy who was bicycling while walking his dog. He tried to extend a friendly greeting to an older couple, but they stared at him and didn't respond. I decided to comment to him, "Cute dog!" He replied, "Thanks! How's it going, man?" "Pretty good," I said as we passed each other. "Yeah, I wish I could be like you," he told me as he and his dog traveled on.

I'd said that I felt pretty good. I wish I hadn't been lying.
