I believe that.... you did a kind thing and that is rare these days...
I always try to do something kind for strangers each day... hold a door open, let someone with just a few items cut in front of me... or just saying hello... but paying for someone's else's gas, that's going beyond... so, it comes back to you when you least expect it... you did good today...
