Sometimes the greatest journey is the distance between two people....

I love this quote. I didn't see the movie..but I love the quote. Life is a journey, right? A cosmic journey if you ask me....one in which you never know quite what will happen, or who you will run into to. Maybe that's the beauty of film, and books....the writer knows how all the pieces of the puzzle fit together. Seemingly random characters from random walks of life connect in ways only a writer can fabricate.

I love a good story, who doesn't? And sometimes, life gives us the best stories of all, with twists and turns and intricately woven connections that couldn't be replicated by even the most gifted of writers.

So how does it happen in real life? How does the journey begin? You never know. You never know what someone will be when they grow up, you never know who will meet, and you never know what fate has in store. I've listened to some pretty amazing stories. Six degrees of separation? Perhaps...a little more than coincidence or chance? Definitely. Everyone has a story, and when the stories are told, then connections are made. It happens every day. If you listen and get to know people, their stories, you will see. The connections are there, like pieces in the puzzle called life. I hate doing puzzles..but I love finding two pieces that fit together. Each piece is unique, and only two pieces can connect in any one configuration, but it takes all the pieces to complete the puzzle.

So let the journey continue...who will you meet today?
