Since childhood we are being told that ' avoid talking to strangers', but recently I came across something unusual about this funda...
On my way to home from college I decided to take another route and boarded a bus. Being a not so regular commuter I was unsure about my route, seeing my confused state a girl in her early twenties offered seat adjacent to her.
Then our conversation started , I was already with a predefined notion to follow all "terms and conditions" while talking to strangers and gave my wrong details ....initially I felt as girls are renowned for their talking skills I am with just another subject of my community :)
She felt with my expressions that its my first ordeal in DTC bus and showed her concern for me by her attempt to save me from crowd .. later bus dropped us at a bus stop which was also new for me as well as for her . But even then she didn't hold back her concern for me , she made sure that I reach safely to my destination.
At the end I reached home , but this incident left me with a thought that these days we are so skeptical for everybody, we ignore goodness of people around us.. Sometimes we are destined to have strangers in our life as our best friends, wellwishers or even life partners..
There are no strangers here; Only friends you haven't yet met - William Butler Yeats
