a deeper connection

i don't know how true it is, and scientific it is clearly not... but yesterday i was talking to a dear friend in india who i hadn't spoken to in a while. and he mentioned how he was suddenly reminded of me while he was busy at work, for no reason in particular, and that he had later seen a missed call from me at around the same time.

i love these coincidences, they're of the most special kind - when i'm thinking of someone and missing them and then, out of nowhere, get a call or an email from them.

of course there are many such occasions when i have thought of people and not heard from them, and then, not thought of people and heard from them. the former is simply normal, and the latter a pleasant surprise. but it is these special times that i crave the most. for they renew my belief that we are capable of developing connections at that deep a level. you know what i mean?
