Thank you _delirium. When I arrived to the US 12 years ago one of the many jobs I did was preparing hamburgers and cleaning bathrooms at a McDonald's. Although I had attended college back in my country of origin, my English skills were quite poor. As a consequence, most people used to ignore me. Many times I felt people thought I was stupid because I couldn't communicate properly. A few other people, though, opted to interact with me. These small interactions helped me feel intelligent and closer to the dream I had of understanding US society and becoming a more productive member of it. Random acts of kindness like yours probably have an effect much larger than what you can imagine at the moment. Their compound effect in the lives of others and their families make them, literally, priceless.
