So the doorbell rang and a stranger breezed in. She lives down the corridor, she said. Had moved in a year ago. She had heard about me from my husband, who is very involved in apartment activities and had decided to meet me. I was a little taken aback, for these days, this kind of behavior is almost unheard of. We don't really make time to meet our unknown neighbours. But it literally felt as though a fresh, fragrant breeze had blown into my home.Her warmth, her offer of friendship cheered me up. Life is about relationships. Some are born, some die out. To just stay open to them when they come and to allow the connection to take its own course is enriching.
