So it just happened two weeks ago. I helped an old lady cut the OPT ticket because at the hospital where I work, there is a long line. There is a lot of queue in the hospital just for the OPT ticket and just to see the doctor. I once helped an old lady who was already in line to cut the ticket and helped her see the doctor because it was very much needed for her since she was very sick. I felt like she had a fever and a cough going on. I don't know what the diagnosis was, but I helped her get in. I know it's not good to cut the queue and go in at first, but I helped her because I was cutting my ticket for myself. I helped her just on the way, to be honest. So, I felt very good afterwards because having someone feel so relieved is like going to the temple and removing negative thoughts. I felt the same way. So, yeah.
