The Acquainted Stranger

We meet several people during the span of our life. They meet and part away.  Some of them become co-traveler just for few moments on the highway of life, among these some are those whom we can never forget even if we try to forget them.  The delicate pinch of their departing, always remains in our heart.  The unreachable-ness always unease our heart.  We do not forget them.  Their memories float up from the subconsciousness, when we are alone in the full moon night.  They are there with the crunching of the dry leave of autumn under our feet.   May these acquainted strangers take their memories with them when departing!

    This is the pray, every lover prays for his/her beloved.

    Thanks for the nice comment.

  • "May these acquainted strangers take their memories with them when departing!"

    This shows the desperation, while the the beloved is not with, but her/his memories, and the lover abruptly says "May these acquainted strangers take their memories with them when departing! ". In spite they know very well that it will not be possible.

    Thanks @Roman for your explaining view point.  Btw, for a piece of writing, the readers has the privilege to interpret the meaning as per their own feelings and emotion.   

  • Hi Mishaikh!

    Tell me please, do you mean exactly "their memories" - the memories that they have about us? So in this case they will remember about us the same way as we remember about them.

    Or maybe you mean "take our memories about them with themselves, when departing"? So in this case we well not recall about their existence anymore.

    I would like those strangers to recall myself sometimes! :D

    Very well said.  Yes some people live within us without any physical contact.

    Thanks for such a nice comment.

  • How sweetly Lana you have elaborated the view point. Thanks a lot.

  • Dear Mishaikh,
    Sometimes these thoughts cross my mind as well.
    Why do we meet people? Some of them are just like blinks in our life and some of them stay with us for a long time. Many people find a place in our heart, they become our friends, family, soulmates and change the life to the better.
    Everyone who comes to our life leave marks there. Unfortunately some traces are like deep scars which can hurt people all the life and there is no medicine to heal them. Fortunately many people leave a lot of happy moments for us. Actually, It depends on us what and who to accept. The more I live the more I understand that nothing is in vain.

  • Mishaikh, sometimes, we don't need to have contact or conversation to get close to each other.

    Not only in memory, but also in prayer, people would remember the ones who dear to them, even when they met only some minutes. :)

    Thanks for sharing this with us.
