It's amazing how someone, whom we might not know today have the possibility to turn to the only one we wish to know. I remember having met someone like this in my life, in fact many. But there was just one instance where that someone really did turn to that only one.
That day, when I looked at him with a blithe indifference in my eyes and walked past him, never to look back again-little did I know he would one day be consuming a portentous size in my life, adding to the comeliness of my existence. He was just another man whose words didn't affect me among the swirls and eddies of people. Neither did his smile entice me. And probably, we never planned on knowing each other beyond the fact that the same planet is playing a host to both of us. But I guess it was all a matter of time. Two people who were no better than strangers and have only once passed by without each other's notice, land together with similar pursuits of affection and love. This is a very good thing about strangers-a term to which we have often assigned fear, malignancy and distance. Every stranger has a strong prospect to become the apple of your eye, and while you're passing the road today, the man next to you may end up becoming the love of your life. That's fortuity, serendipity and that's life too.
