A stranger or someone we know?

A stranger might be someone who can bring a pretty smile to your face. Maybe those are the ones who might erase those painful memories. They don't matter but yet sometimes are the most precious memories that we can carry.

There are many instances of an impact a stranger had on me even after so long time. Engineering has a field that is too difficult because people here are good at everything accept studies, so we have to go for extra classes to understand these subjects. It was a day like this I was totally tired and almost given up on the class. Not that I could not understand but I simply wasn't able to anymore. I was traveling back home by bus and it was pretty late as the class was extended. It was raining and I being the person I am who loved rain so much that I was sitting by the window and observing people. Traffic is the main problem in Mumbai and with rain pouring down there was little flooding. So there was this father-child duo with a guy on a bike. The must be around 5-6 years of age and was sitting between his father and this guy. Me being me I was watching the kid also observing people. We were the only two who were observing all others just wanted the traffic to ease so they would reach home faster. So at some point, the child saw me and started smiling at me, okay I would say I was quite surprised by him. He automatically brought a smile to my face. He was so happy that I smiled and that made my day. His father and the other guy did not bother checking with what the child did. So now the bus moved little and we were facing diagonally. And he was searching for me when he saw me he gave me a flying kiss and I reciprocated. He was so happy that he started jumping on the seat. Soon the traffic was cleared and we had to go our way. And it was a goodbye then. But that interaction made me happy for the coming days. These types of interactions are what we humans need in our life nowadays.

After joining college there was too much to think about and this little girl was staying on the ground floor of my same building. She always used to watch me coming home after college. One day she just started talking to me, and those days never used to be stressful. She was like an Angel as her name.

I wanted to start something to share my thoughts and thought that I should start a blog or an Instagram account with quotes. And soon I did start and with the social account I met a friend, she has the same nature but she is just the smaller version of myself yet more mature. She was the one guiding me even after being younger than me. Sharing ideas and experiences we knew that we are just similar nature.

There are many strangers in our life whom we meet just for a short duration yet they have made a huge impression in our life, those persons are the once whom we can't forget. Those people who helped us get something huge when we were going through something so difficult that we thought we could never make it.
