Stranger than fiction - meeting you by chance

 Here I am trying to put down my thoughts about you. It’s the transformation of your image in my view, over a short period of time. It has hardly been couple of weeks that I have known you over the internet.  Internet is quite an unreal explosion of information. It’s not fair to say that I know you. The journey has just begun. But from whatever I have known about you, I can say that you remind me of ‘PO’

Now there is neither a connection between you and ‘PO’ nor a resemblance. You are a young, elegant & beautiful girl, while ‘PO’ is an animated character from the Kung-fu panda. ‘PO’ is symbolic for innocence, strength and outright awesomeness and a lot more which I am missing out on putting down here. But I am sure, by now you get the idea of what I am trying to say. 

I noticed you when your profile flashed in the “People You May Know” section of Facebook. I decided to give a cursory look. To be honest I had passed you off as just another attention whore over the internet. Putting up their pictures for the world to see, getting a kick out of the frenzy created by people trying to grab their attention.  I consider them to be normal over the internet. As it is always the pretty pictures to be seen in such profiles, I began exploring. The pictures were surely attention grabbing, but they wouldn't have led me to this point when I am writing about you. What grabbed my attention was the way some of these pictures were telling a story.

There is a wannabe storyteller in me which was intrigued by you and wanted to get to know you.  I began my search over the internet and happen to find you across multiple social networking platforms. The best was to find you on blog spot and read your post. Twitching Palms took me back to the time when I had started, reminded me of how enthusiastic I was at the beginning. The brief interaction I had with you has changed my opinion about you. I was so wrong at the beginning.  Hope with the due course of time I get to know you rather than know about you and someday get to tell your story.

There is this world of dreams where we venture in, to escape.  And there is this reality called life. I would like to thank you for compelling me to write and bring me back to the world of dreams. I wish you to continue writing the way you are and wish you keep inspiring me. In-between I hope this life does not destroy the dream.

Signing off for now.
