Path

I never know quite what to make of it … I am walking along, my mind is adrift, someone is coming my way … a stranger on the path. We see each other and one of us nods … there is a nod in return … it is a sign of recognition that says, “I see you. I hope you are well. May peace be with you.” In that moment we are, in some way, connected … headed in different directions yet together on this earth … here for one another as need might arise, and acknowledging that we are, in some mysterious way, walking together.
