A New "Unexpected" Friend

It's amazing how the unexpected happens when you least expect it; I guess that would explain why they say it's "unexpected".

More so, I think it's so amazing and so beautiful how God brings people together who are complete strangers, from opposite ends of the earth together, and brings light into their hearts at their similarities. Many a times, you run into people; again "unexpectedly"; exchange dialog and then walking away thinking to yourself how close you feel to that person, how all of sudden, bearing the distance from someone you JUST met wold be unbearable, looking forward to the next exchange of dialogue, wanting to discover what God will show you.....

It is in these instances, where, we, as humans, realize how united and connected we really are. We may not be connected by blood ties, or acquaintances, or even close friendships, but God, the most Gracious the most Merciful, in his most amazing wisdom, has connected all of us through something more intimate: that is our hearts, the most sacred place, that which has been called "the real Ka'aba"....think about it.....I know I am....

Today on the 8th of Ramadhan, I had this very connection with another heart, a conversation amazingly awesome (I know weird choice of words) and now, I yearn for another set of exchange of words....

May God the Gracious bring all of us closer together, realizing the inner beauty which connects all of us in the greater "human family"......
