Along the way...

Recently, on a tour to the North of India, I've had the pleasure of meeting few interesting people... I must admit everyone of them were cordial, extremely helpful and made our trip quiet a remarkable experience... We met this young Sabyasachi on our train journey to Delhi and got into conversation... Giving glimpses of each other's lives, we developed a great rapport with each other... By the time we alighted at Delhi Sarai Rohilla station, we thought we knew each other for long... He was most cordial and helpful, making a point to take us to our destination by himself and forgetting one of his own bags back in the cab...!!! We had lunch together and he saw us off till metro, exchanging our pleasantries, email ids, and numbers.... And with this I believe we exchanged more than just that...

Likewise, we bumped into this guy, Rahul Arora, enroute our waiting line for Vaishno Devi Mata... We talked and then talked more... Surprising how a few hours of conversations can make bonds so strong... We exchanged contacts in the same fashion and then went on with our lives... and lo... the first day I open my email to check mails.. there's a 'hello' from him...

And then there was this couple from Delhi - Mr & Mrs. Jain... who gave us their parental support all our way back... and some very good time on our way back to Mumbai... Nobin from Mangalore.... quiet, ever smiling guy...

All of us went our ways... criss-crossing each other's lives for some time... and leaving behind some few good memories... of each other... along the way of our life's journey.... !!!
