It seems silly. And as a matter of fact it is silly. How can you seem to know a certain someone even when you've never met in person..ever?? Should logic explain it, we would be more than happy to accept that we're delusional or folie or whatever. Unable to believe oneself, we take refuge in the thought that maybe this is destined. What a way to hide from the ghost of self doubt. Shutting your eyes tightly, hoping you are invisible and the fears accompanied by these doubts will never find you afterall. But they find you and haunt you.
Ever felt like you have a inexplicably deep bond with a person sitting somewhere thousands of miles away from you. A strong feeling that urges you to check your mail..only to find one sent from that stranger, just when you signed in. Everything seems like a sign, pointing in the direction of this unseen fantasy. Everwhere you go, you are followed by the shadow of this unknown familiarity. Or is it just suddenly we start connecting our life subconsciously to this illusion.
Its illogical...the small voice in your head will say. But why is this voice always small, so much so that it ends up getting ignored? Though the fear of getting hurt will keep raising its head again and again. It'll keep tormenting with the unanswerable 'what if'. What if we're wrong in our judgment? What if the whole thing is just a figment of our twisted imagination. What if bruises and pain await you on the other side of this blissful ride to wonderland? This 'beautiful' stranger is sitting pretty far off to beat the shit out of you. But who can tell for certain,when this something special might turn into something not so special or maybe not. You might as well be in for a surprise. Well isn't the small voice right..always? But you make it shutup anyway. At least until you find out what this strange connection is? What if you don't find out??

As far as I'm concerned, every time i see a pretty girl the voice inside my head is always louder, "Go boy! Go and get her. She is the one." But before i could go and get her, her boy friend shows up and she's gone. Now the voice inside my head is louder than before, "Loser!" He he he he heee...:)
Jokes apart, it's really wonderful. The way you have expressed it made me ponder over it for quite some time. You certainly dragged me deep into it. And guess what, I'm confused. :)
Keep writing!
