Old Friends New Connections

Railway tracks in Colombo

The journey of life is so strange. You meet to part and part to meet. Sometimes you meet people who represent an milestone or a turning point in your life. They journey with you for that moment in time and then they move away. But many a times, life leads  us on a circuitous road and we meet again. Almost like discovering a well loved book after a long time. For me that will be The Pillars of Earth or Rebecca. Or like slipping into a well -worn comfortable T-shirt or enjoying a cup of hot chocolate on a cold winter evening! The comfort and familiarity yet a sense of the unknown.

The intervening years and various episodes of life have shaped and reshaped us. How will it pan out? Don't know ! I am happy for the moment that  anew connection has been made. Let us see what the journey brings.

This post is for all my long lost friends in Sri Lanka. I loved reconnecting with you! And to a new friend who provided inspiration for blogging! (You know who you are!)
