Have you ever known anyone for such a short while, but felt like you’ve known them way longer than that. Like a deep deep knowing or a deep deep relation. Something out of the ordinary? As though you’ve known this unknown from your previous birth or something (if that exists)
No, am not writing a movie script.
I am stating facts, and experience.
Meeting new people everyday, is a part of my job. Be it Job, or non-job related outings, i have always found it nice to greet and meet new people, exchange two words with them, pass on a Good morning or good afternoon to them or just smile at them. Trust me, it makes a lot of difference in your day.
I have never found keen interest in knowing anybody so deeply or intensely. Neither have i ever made efforts.
I have met wonderful people, and known their stories in this process. What is even more blissful to me is that even without knowing each other for more than few hours, people open up to me and share some personal problems, not seeking any solution, but just seeking an open ear, someone who can hear them out. Which i do. And which i enjoy doing. As long as they are not busy criticizing anything. Criticism, that would open up a new chapter to what am saying, so lets ignore that.
Out of all the shit i said above, i would like to elaborate on a very specific feeling.
A feeling i wont be able to describe 100%, but i wish for all to feel this, at least get to nibble a bit of this feeling. Because it is, oh so wonderful!
The feeling of knowing somebody, somebody who you have no relation with. Its a little weird to name any kind of relation to this bond, because it is un-explanatory.
You have expressed yourself 120% to this person, you can always count on this person in any mode, in any turn, in any way you want to. Not because you need a help-line, but because....well, just because.
When you talk, you forget time. When you laugh, you forget your tears. When you cry, you know you have got eachother to let yourselves all out. Their problems become yours and vice versa. Their family becomes yours. Their existence becomes the reason you too exist. The lame jokes you crack with them, the secrets shared...it is going to stay between just the two of you.
A person you can blindly trust, literally. A person you know will be on your side no matter what. A person who’s very existence gives you a lot of comfort. A person who feels what you feel. This is not fictional. This happens, this is real. And when you feel this, consider yourself lucky.
The person, who’s eyes talk to your eyes. A person who’s voice could soothe you inside out completely. A person who’s touch is all you need to forget your fears/pain/problems even exist. A person you know is worthy of every damn thing. A person, the thought of losing who, brings immediate tears into your eyes. A person, who’s existence makes you thank God in every prayer of yours. A person who is nothing, but a blessing in your life.
This person need not be your sister, cousin, husband, wife. This relationship you share with this person need not be named. No name would define a bond so strong, a bond so pure, a bond so so dear and important. Nobody in this world would understand what you share with the person, not even the both of you.
This person is your soul-mate. I mean it, there is no other who could complement your soul like this person.
They exist in your life for a reason, i don’t know what the reason may be, but it is something i would love to find out.
