Yesterday I caught up with someone I met in through work recently. We have a nice connection- telepathic almost. But in fact, we've only ever interacted 5 times in total over the last 4 months. Her tenure here is already over- she's off this Saturday. As we parted, presumably forever, she said, in spite of the general good feel and wanting to somehow say something...important, you know, suited to the gravity of the situation, all that could be said was, 'Well, bye then, nice to know you.'
Rude? In that context, it was the only thing that could be said. Nice to have known you.
Of late, I seem to be meeting people, who in another dimension I might have known better. But in this one, all there is opportunity for is a mere hello, as if we were joggers running on parallel tracks, waving at each other . But like passing planets on their solitary orbits, it feels like this sort of rendezvous is as predestined as it is merely happenstance.
