Crossing paths over many years; eventually connecting because of someone in our lives. I believe it’s all meant to be as we need… are there when needed by others. That’s how it happened for me. Beautiful poem, Jane! 😊❤️
Thanks Joan! People do seem to be there at the right time and it's a gift for sure. Then sometimes we are connected by someone we barely know. I'm glad you enjoyed my poem. I'm happy you are here
I can say with absolute certainty that I have on more than one occasion been there for someone at the right time. It happened fairly recently actually, and I wrote about it. It's a great feeling to be able to be there for someone!

Oh wow! That's cool how you reconnected again after 40 years
Yes we did . it is very cool . thanks Jane
All I can say is that I am glad that our paths have crossed here on Substack. You are such a talented sweet writer.
I’m so glad we have too, Kathleen! I enjoy your writing as well!
I have had many instances that were not by chance. Sometimes we don't see it right away, but when you step back you might understand the reason why.
So true! Sometimes many years later it all makes sense

Oh wow! I'll have to check out your post. You can link here if you want.
Can do!
I think about the thousands of random events that had to occur before I bumped into this stranger at the corner.
I mean, what are the odds?!
But I understand how life works, so I realize there was no meaning to that encounter, just two strangers crossing paths who will never meet again.
I know, right. I have to wonder how much is chance. Then there are people that reappear at the right time it feels and I wonder is it all coincidence
