The world is very small.....

The world is very small. When I was in long view, Dallas, Texas during my last week in the campus, I decided to buy some gifts for my family so I went to the mall nearby and I was shopping for my family, I went to a candle shop inside the mall where they sell scented candles and other products. There was a shop assistant who helped me to buy certain things in the shop, she was continuously asking me question regarding my visit to the States then after a couple of minutes she asked my "where you from?", I told her that I am from Chennai, Tamilnadu. 

She got suprised and suddenly called someone, i was looking at the candles in the shop and again she reached me and gave her phone and asked me to talk. I was anxious and there was a man who was on the phone. We had a conversation for 20 minutes. It was not that big convo, but he told that he was from Chennai and the most interesting twist was he studied in MCC. I was amazed and then realised that the world is very small. I was no one and i don't want to speak someone strange to me but see how the connections build at the end of the convo he said that he will try to come to my dormitory, unfortunately it was my final week so I don't have time to meet him. 

At last, I want to confess that the World is very small, across 12000 km from my hometown completely new place surrounded by new people, i got to have convo who was studied in my college during 2000. Right now i just have his contact but it is very precious so me. I could just ignore her and move on to next shop, but something made me to connect with that person, he was very happy, he shared lot of personal experience amd life happening to me (a strange)

Build connection, talk to strangers in this strange world because the world is very small, tiny and one day the most strange world will be the most familiar one.
