It was a company picnic and everyone from different team were supposed to attend it.
I had some work load which I had planned to complete during this time but demand was to be here too and meet people who directly or indirectly would be an help in the long journey.
Along with my other colleagues I attend the picnic which was conducted in the near by Regional Park and Recreational place. Food was placed for vegetarians and non-vegetarians too!
Lots to drink – of course water and beer. People started gathering and everyone as they came by grabbed food and sat to their team mates table and enjoyed it.
After the food was over it was time to play such as volley ball and other games.
Mean while I was getting introduced to other team members I saw this person who seemed to be a known person but I was not able to recollect.
Suddenly, I see the same person comes to me and introduces me saying do we know each other?
Now, I am wondering – I know you very well but if you ask me where I met then I have no answer.
“Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born” ~ Anais Nin
This person, started talking to me as if we have grown together as kids. That day I was in hurry and I resumed to work saying that she has task to figure out where we met.
Days went by and suddenly one day I pinged her saying hello and if she knows where and how we met?
She was still figuring out. We traveled all places, schools, universities, offices, country what not and alas! no where we had a chance also to cross-by. She never went to the schools that I had been. She never was in the city that I was raised in.
The thought that we still have and linger is that we know eachother very well…but how? where did we meet? – no where other than the office picnic; then why is this feeling that we know each other from ages?
It reached to a point where this person started considering if there is any connection from our previous lives
!
I was clear enough to tell that I don’t believe in it but if she still wants to consider and check with some atrologers or psychic as it will be interesting to dig things that are out of our reach and thoughts
“Depth of friendship does not depend on length of acquaintance” ~ Rabindranath Tagore
we are friends still and yet figuring out where did we meet? Any thoughts what your beliefs could be on this? If there is something you believe that we are from previous lives and we were friends but something came and parted us that we are meeting again in this life?
Uncertain about certain things and certain about our ownselves – how true is it?
“Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting; The Soul that rises with us, our life’s Star, Hath had elsewhere its setting. And cometh from afar.” —William Wordsworth
