No One Is A Stranger

It was in the year 2009 when I had been on some official work to Ahmedabad. My lodging and boarding was in the company’s guest house. I was told by the guest house caretaker that I need to share the room with one more guest. I completed my dinner and slept. At around 11pm, I noticed someone along with me in the room. I thought of talking to him in the morning and slept. In the morning the introductions took place and got to know that Rahulji too works for the same company.

My stay continued in Ahmedabad for four or five days but I hardly got any opportunity to talk to Rahulji at length because of our working hours. However, on the day when I had to leave Ahmedabad, I left a small note for him. In the evening when I returned and was about to leave to the railway station, I found the Business Card of Rahulji on the desk with a small note for me at its back. I felt extremely happy for this acknowledgement and wish to know how he felt.

In our lives, sometimes even if we meet someone for the first time, we get a feeling that we know them since ages and this is what exactly happened in my case too. Though I am not sure of the actual beginning of this relationship but I can assure Rahulji that there is no end. I take this opportunity to thank you for being one more beautiful flower in the garden of my life.
