Tonight, I met up with my friends at Sonic. I was in the library studying for a majority of the day so I hung out with them long after they got together. I was very surprised when I saw Nick (my friend’s roommate) there. He is a very quiet guy and he keeps to himself. He usually doesn’t hang out with us. I think at the beginning of the semester, they used to invite him a lot and he kept saying no so they stopped. Later I found out that he told them ‘thank you’ for inviting him to come. It just made me really happy because I realized how long a small act of kindness can go. They could have easily just not invited him like usual, but they were sensitive to his needs and it just so happened to make his night! This just reminded me that I need to be more conscious of those around me.
