Everybody is somebody’s somebody.
It all depends on what we see when we see people.
When we sit down on a bus next to a complete stranger, we
have a choice. We can take the easy way out, crack open a book, put in our ear
buds and disappear into ourselves.
Or we can say hello. We can notice people. We can create an
act of connection in a moment of silence.
It doesn’t work every
time, but we have a lot of times.
What’s neat is, once we have a chance encounter with a
stranger that changes everything, we start to see strangers differently. Our
posture changes. What we see when we see people isn’t what it used to be.
And that’s when the real fun begins.
Not because we see somebody as a mark, but because we view
every interaction as a chance to change somebody’s world.
Maybe theirs, maybe ours, or maybe both.
