Touched

How many times in life you feel touched? That sensitive emotional moment that brings tears of joy, happiness, and a bouquet of emotions that takes you down memory lane, creating nostalgia.Its happening in my life of late quite often.History repeats is what they say!I don't like repetitions , but recalling those splendid moments and the people involved, especially when they pop out of no where and appear in front of you on a social media circuit or in person or phone.That moment is something I would value for my life time.That I consider the biggest present of my future.

I got a connect from my college mate of the 80's who actually i haven't been in touch for over 3 decades .They were the 3 queens of my engineering days and today I got the connect of the 4th queen of hearts through a common link, who happens to be my wife's friend and staying miles away from where my college mate stays today.This connection came through a blog post i wrote yesterday and reading that her mother somehow managed to correlate it to this person about whom I wrote the post.The interesting part is this person is the sister of my college friend who again though we are on face book but haven't met for 3 decades!!Such an amazing world, what a moment.I also got a connect from one of my other colleagues who worked me in the gulf, and now settled in the USA with his family .Excellent human being,a Lebanese by origin and it was no nice of him to recall all those wonderful days and refresh them.Why these moments start of back to back is the question/.What relevance do they have in our lives?Why now?I have experienced things pretty similar occurring every decade of my life.As the posts get read across countries with no borders, including morocco, Israel, Poland, Venezuela,Turkey,Greece,and fiji I know the power of blogging and its consequences.I would utilize this space as best as I can.

The most stunning part comes now.It may be trivial for some, but for me this is priceless.I got a call from my close friend whose son graduated as an engineer and happened to be facing a series of interviews and group discussions for a well known MNC.To prepare for the same , my friend suggested that his son go through my blogs and catch hold of any thoughts, ideas, strategy he may feel that would be useful and approach the interviews.As i understand from him , he read all my blog posts and was certainly inspired and actually qualified for their recruitment .He was selected and will join this MNC .I don't wish to deprive the young lad of his efforts and engineering brilliance, but what touched me was his father's call( my close friend) who specifically called me to mention this to my wife and me was very touching.I am humbled.If these posts make even a small difference to any body's life and adds value , i would have contributed a little bit for making this world a better place.Such moments I would cherish for life.I was so moved yesterday , and the picture moves in front of my eyes as a slide show of life.

I like to express in words, the way I see life and wish to one day turn it into a book of sorts with simple steps that may help the young and old.
