the beauty of language differences

Just this afternoon I went to a nearby fastfood chain here in our place. I liked to converse with the crew there but I cannot since I don't know how to speak their tongue and they cannot speak in English either. So, I just ordered my food with body and sign language which is understandable by everyone. I hope I could speak their tongue soon so I won't just smile and answer I don't know or walk away. But there is the beauty of our language difference which is our friendship. By their mere smile and friendliness, I know they understand me and is willing to help me. That is the most important - understanding each other.
