A funny and interesting thing happened to me very recently.
I was with my pup, waiting by the side of the road, when a total stranger came up to say Hi. I was a little cautious, as my pup is easily excitable, and I didn’t want him jumping on her. Much to my surprise, she wasn’t there to say Hi to the pup (most do, so I was expecting them to LOL!) but to me!
She said she had been reading my blog for the longest time, and wanted to take the opportunity to say Hi. It was a bit of a whirlwind meeting, and then she was gone, and I was left with my pup, feeling a little bemused, but brimming with gratitude. I didn’t even get her name, because I was shellshocked haha! 😀
Then a couple of weekends ago, I was in Singapore, at the famed Newton Circus food court, stuffing my face with grilled chicken wings (it’s one of my fave things to eat in Singapore, oddly enough), when I received an Instagram DM just as I was leaving, to ask if I had been there. It must have been a long shot, because no one knew I was down in Singapore, but it was me and she said she ought to have come and said Hi.
Both these incidences left me pondering on the impact we leave on people’s lives, even those we think we’d never meet or have never met.
