… in a world full of strangers ...
... it’s quite an overwhelming thought ... so many people ... literally millions ... scattered from one country to the next ...... and you live you’re entire life only meeting a small handful ... a drop in the ocean really ...
... so many potential friends ... lovers ... acquaintances ... that you never get an opportunity to meet ... talk to ... laugh with ...
... even if you scale it down & look just at your immediate home town ... thousands of strangers ... just passing you by in the street ... on the freeway ...
... in fact, the most amazing person you have ever met in your entire life could live in the next street ... around the corner from you ...
... but you’ll never know ... unless destiny steps in ...
Yesterday on my lunch-break, one of those complete strangers ...
... gave me a smile.
A smile that just oozed inner happiness.
She would have been not much older than my son.
... she was in a wheelchair ... without a care or worry in the world.
Inspirational.
... gave me that warm fuzzy feeling deep down inside ....

That is beautiful.
I had one of those moment once when I saw a very old woman ...probably in her nineties if not more....walked with a cane. As she walked by she stopped ,starred directly at me and said with a shaky emotional voice and tears in her eyes " you remind me of me at your age" she smiled and continued with "never EVER let anyone tell you who you are or what you are capable of doing" she touched my hand and walked on.......
I will never ever forget her
