A Glance and few Moments

Just a few moments and a few people are all you need. Humans by nature are so interlinked and interdependent in such intricate fashion, if you care to interpret this manner you may well be surprised. I can vouch that in a day you would bump into some one who would remind you of some one else. Some times this encounter can plunge you into momentary nostalgia or you can feel yourself talking or thinking about the person you were just reminded of for the rest of the day.
This experience strikes me almost every other day – at the train station, at work, at home and not to my surprise even when I am alone!
You happen to see an anonymous person during your travel and you are amazed by the striking resemblance he/she has to someone from your intimate web of family and friends. Your behaviour and your very own self are bits and pieces of a jig saw puzzle of blood-links. Somebody’s eyes, their voice, and their smile sends in a flush of memories –good or bad; old and new.
Your mind races from thoughts about one person to another and you feel transported from one point in your life to another. A glance of someone was all you had. A few moments is all it took to rejuvenate the strands of your web- woven strong against time and distance!
