When a Simple "Hello" Changes Everything
That Monday in Manhattan started like any other. Laura Schroff, an advertising executive at USA Today, was rushing through the city streets when she heard a small voice asking for spare change. Like most New Yorkers, she kept walking-until something made her stop and turn around. There stood Maurice, an 11-year-old boy with untied shoelaces and hopeful eyes. Instead of giving him money, Laura offered him lunch at McDonald's. That simple meal became the first of hundreds of Monday meetings that would transform both their lives forever. What makes us turn around when we've already walked away? What invisible force connects two people from entirely different worlds? Maurice lived in the notorious welfare hotels of New York City, surrounded by drug addiction, violence, and neglect. Laura enjoyed a successful career, a comfortable apartment, and all the privileges of upper-middle-class life. Yet in that McDonald's, as Maurice devoured his Big Mac and fries, the first threads of an extraordinary connection began to form-one that would prove stronger than the vast social divide between them.
