So I ran into a McDonald's which was in the same plaza and asked the man at the counter who happened to be the manager to please call me a cab. I briefly explained my situation to him, and I could tell by the look in his eyes that he empathized. He hurried to the back to use the phone while I paced in the restaurant. I had less than 10 minutes to get back to my school at this point.

　　The manager returned only to tell me that the cab

　　company had put him on hold and then the line got

　　disconnected， and that he was now on hold again, but had not

　　been able to request the cab yet. My expression, I assume, began to resemble some combination of hopelessness and fear.

　　Without a thought, he grabbed his coat and offered to drive me to the school.

　　Without hesitation， I followed him into

　　his car and made it back into my classroom with 2 minutes to

　　spare before the bell!

　　Upon arriving at the school, I thanked this man endlessly. His calm behavior and kind nature made me think he was probably a wonderful manager to work for, and also a

　　wonderful human being to have on this earth. This experience

　　makes me realize that out of every seemingly hopeless

　　situation, there is the opportunity for acts of kindness to

　　transpire (发生), which can have an unimaginable impact
