Coolness to the pizza delivery dude is a practice in equality. My measurement as a human being, my worth, is the pride I take in performing my job — any job — and the respect with which I treat others. I am the equal of the world not because of the car I drive, the size of the TV I own, the weight I can bench press, or the calculus equations I can solve. I am the equal to all I meet because of the kindness in my heart. And it all starts here — with the pizza delivery dude. Examine the transition of ideas: How does the topic of this paragraph relate to the previous topic? Why is this a logical progression of ideas?

What is the function of the last sentence in this paragraph? (Consider why the author didn’t just end with “I am the equal to all I meet because of the kindness in my heart.”)
