Amazing Practice of Kindness---Stony Brook University

I was watching the Ellen Degeneres show today and saw that she has a program called "Kick in the Kindness" week. I was really touched by the ripple effect produced by her program and went to her Facebook page to find out more. 

I saw this video on the page which was produced by students at Stony Brook University. As college students, many of them spend the late night hours studying (or partying) and end up making a visit to the local Dunkin Donuts. An employee named Zamir works the late shift and is known to greet each and every customer with the utmost of kindness. In this video, the students get together to shower Zamir with gifts and cards of recognition. He is surprised and at the same time deeply touched.

This video is yet another example of how your simple acts of kindness and acknowledgment can make an impact even when you don't know it.
