Ever said those words? Well the truth is, she, or he, might not know who you are. Why am I bringing this up? because there are those times you avoid eye contact with someone because you think there is a history or because you think they know you, and it's been so long that you just really don't want to talk to them, well the truth is, maybe they don't know who you are, or don't remember.
I have been working at the New Town branch with Maria Hardin, an older hispanic lady, for about a year now, it was just this morning that we realized we lived right down the street from one another for about two years, and never met... And by right down the street I don't mean she lived at one end of a mile long street and I lived at the other, I mean she literally lived 2 houses down from the small cul-de-sac I called home for my High School Years. Once we realized this we also realized we knew some of the same people from the neghborhood and my brother use play with her neighbors children all the time! Yet, as far as we both know, neither of us remember meeting each other before 1st Advantage.
This brings up another point, can you imagine all the people that live around you or are a friend of a friend, and run in similar circles, but you never meet them. There are so many interesting people in the world and while I might have over 600 friends on facebook, I have yet to come close meeting them all. This also makes me hopeful for my life. I have so many wonderful friends, but many of them I just met in the last 7 years, there's also a number that I knew in high school and have become friends with in the last year. I can only imagine the wonderful and interesting people I will get to meet in the future, and how current 'aquaintences' will turn into friends. Pretty cool.
