I think it's amazing how people walk in and out of your life. You can meet someone, one day, for a second, or maybe spend a few weeks with them, and then circumstances change and the chances are you're never going to see them again. You might bump into them in the street at some point, but that could be in a month, or in 10 years, or not at all.
We all do it. Imagine how many lives you've walked into, and back out of again, and who's you've walked into and you've never left (and maybe never plan to).
For the past two months, every Monday and Tuesday I have been doing temporary office work and the people in the office (6 women and 1 guy) are all really lovely. I've had such a laugh with some of them. Admittedly, some of them I won't miss, as I already find them tedious and it has only been about 16 days spent with them. But a few of them have really made an impression on me, I've enjoyed their company and I appreciate the way they've treated and accepted me as one of their own.
They've even asked me to keep in touch, and said that they would do me favours when my graudation comes along if I'd like. This means a lot to me and I may just take them up on this, just so I can say hello again.
It's strange how people walk in and out of your life. Some people you won't even remember. They're just a passing soul, just as you are to them, living their life while you're busy living yours.
It's strange how people walk in and out of your life. Some hang around for a while. We hope that these people hanging around are the special ones. They should be, after all these are the people that you're bothering to stay in contact with.
The special ones are those who make an impression on you. And just because someone makes an impression on you doesn't mean that they'll make an impression on the person next to you, and vice versa. I've become really aware of this the past few years, and I really like the idea of it. Everyone is different, after all, and the peole that we like, associate with and think are special are going to be different too.
Well, I hope never to lose touch with the people who made an impression on me, and I simply cannot wait to meet more people that do just that.
I hope you meet plenty of people that make an impression on you, and I hope you're brave enough to make an effort to keep in touch with them, whatever the barriers.
