For Friends You Haven't Met

Hi friends,

Well, yes, i haven't probably met you, or i probably have, but i still think of you as friends. You may call me stupid, and immature, and that i haven't seen the real world yet. Well, you have every right to do that, but i'll still think of you no less than of a friend. If we meet someday, i'll be sure to smile and strike up a conversation, if i don't, please feel free to start, 'cause something definitely is off about that scenario. 

Today i am just here to share a piece of my personality and experience of making acquaintance with a new friend, probably 50+ year old. Its not my first time. Well, may be its just because i am talkative, but i can't sit and not interact with anyone, esp if i am alone, and getting bored. So well, today, this granny aged woman who was @ McD with her daughter and grandson, and was walking with a stick, she was old, but not too old, was standing in front of the counter, wondering where to sit, in the completely-packed-with-people place. So well, me and my family had one seat to offer on our table. So, while i was just sipping my drink, i waited to catch her eyesight, and when i did, i smiled a bit and with gentle wave of hand, offered her to sit with us. Though hesitant in the beginning, she happily accepted it, still insisting that she'd shift to another table if there is one available. Then she and i got chatting about movies. She just watched Dhoom 3 and she loved it. We talked about 3D movies, family outings, food, acting and i felt like I've met a friend not a stranger, not an old woman, just a friend. She started being comfortable at the table and i loved the way she wasn't hesitant in interacting with a stranger. 

I just felt like the difference in our age didn't matter, and that it was great meeting her. She didn't feel like a stranger at all. Its not my first time. I have always have been pretty interactive on all my journeys with my neighboring passengers in trains and buses, provided they are either too young or too old. Usually i tend to interact with kids, who are bugging their moms and need to be tamed. So i take my sketchbook out and draw something. It engages them for quite a while. Once, one of the mommies told me to teach him how to draw apple and various vegetables, some flowers too. It was most fun I've ever had. The kid was a darling. I did meet a Doctor once, who was researching some skin operations, must be about 50 years old. He was creating a presentation he was going to present somewhere, so we got talking about computers and stuff. 

I did make acquaintance with people, my age, once or twice. But that is rare. Well, concluding this post, all i can say is, i love walking around with the zest of bumping into a friend i haven't met, yet. Cheers mates.. :D
