A
I have a Rewards Card for Showcase Cinema that allows me to earn rewards points with each purchase that I make at the theatre and periodically provides me with a free popcorn, soda or movie ticket coupon(优惠券). I had recently accumulated enough rewards points to obtain a coupon for a free popcorn.
Standing in the movie theatre ticket line on Saturday, I noticed just ahead of me, a father with his 2 small boys also waiting to buy their tickets for the Matinee Movie. Knowing that movies can be quite expensive for families nowadays, I tapped the Dad on the shoulder and asked, "I have a coupon for free popcorn and don't plan to use it, would you like it for one of your boys?" He said, "Yeah, sure. That's great! Thanks!" and took the coupon.
A few minutes later, after they had purchased their tickets, one of his small sons who appeared to be about 9 or 10 years old, walked up to me and silently held out a shiny penny to show me. I took it and said, "Wow that's cool! It's really shiny!" He quietly replied, "It's a 2011".
As I handed it back to him. He pushed the penny towards me once again and quietly said, "You can keep it". Showing my gratitude, I replied, "Wow that's awesome, thank you very much" and asked, "Where did you get it!" and he said quite softly, "I found it in my Dad's car". I said, "Oh that's cool, thanks!" He smiled, quietly turned and walked back to his Dad who returned my smile with a knowing smile of his own. It's the small special moments like that that can make an ordinary day special.
