I've been thinking.
throughout the years i've come across many types of people, acquaintances, brief encounters, long friendships, close relationships and unique bonds. Some I have kept, some I have lost, but no matter how much time passes or how many places I stop visiting, or how much things change, some ties still remain.
Whether it be a lost long friend whom I rarely talk to anymore, or an enemy from the past, or a stranger who always manages to find me at the same place or time, or a person with whom we exchange glances and turn away without saying a word....I seem to be connected to these people. Call it a coincidence, but I'd like to think there's something magical about these things, like the universe WANTS us to remain connected, like there's something more for us and our fates are destined to meet. Some people you can never avoid, some names will keep being brought up in random conversations, some people will share mutual friends, or even boyfriends or enemies. And of course, there WILL be that person that years ago presented you to someone you dated and left and later dated someone else who went out with someone who was friends with someone who cheated on that person who presented you the one you dated...and who years later confessed also cheated on someone you already know. Or something like that.
I find humor in the thought that I can be connected to someone i've never even met, by a heartbreak or a failed friendship or the common hangout place of the weekends.
Then again, there is also a more realistic and logical explanation which, even though may be totally right, really messes up the cosmic and philosophical bullshit I've written here:
This island is way too fucking small.
