A World Full of Possibilities

If you would have asked me back in August what I would be doing on October 27th, getting on a plane headed for Taiwan would have been the last thing I would have said. It interesting how quickly life can change. The past 6 months have been nothing but continuous change for me. Once a creature of habit, I’m starting to wonder how much I actually crave and need change in my life.

I’m going to see a friend I barely know in a foreign place I have never been. In truth, we went to junior high and high school together but I have really no memories of him other than a casual hello as we passed by each other in the hall. Thanks to an all too popular social networking site, no ma, no a dating website, we somehow managed to reconnect, all leading to this moment where I am about to get on a plane heading for Taiwan.

With something that started out with little thought, unexpectantly turned into a friendship full of possibilities. Maybe romance, maybe a lifelong friend, maybe only two ships passing in the night. One thing is for sure, it's bound to be a good time.

So I'm about to board this plane to sit for 15 hours. I'm sure I will read a little, watch a few movies and what is true of my nature, get lost in my own thoughts. Fifteen hours is a mighty long time ...
