Amazing!

My friends Ehsan and Maryam were supposed to have taken a trip to Canada this week. Ehsan started a new job a few weeks ago and at the last minute they had to cancel their trip. They called me to say that they will come to dinner at my house on Saturday. It's always a good time when I see the two of them. Ehsan was relieved to be able to spend time with one of his closest friends who was visiting the Bay Area this past week. Ehsan and his friend attended Tehran University together as undergraduates, and then they both went on to Texas for their graduate work. He and Maryam decided to bring their friend to my house last night. They told him that they were invited to a good friend's house and that they were sure he would be welcome there. When they told him the name of the hostess (that would be me!), he told them that he knew who I was! The guest was no other than my reader from Texas, Ahmad. Isn't it amazing?! Isn't it a small world? I got to meet the intelligent, sweet and sensitive Ahmad of Texas last night. Amazing!

It's so amazing and in fact wonderful to meet a friend in that surprising way. It happened to me before too. But believe me as a reader of your blog, I am so interested to meet you one day in my life! I mean it!

Nazy jan, did I forget to mention that I didn't wish to be in the same picture with His Majesty's shirt? (kidding :o)
We had great evening Nazy jan, as we always have at your place. You are a fabulous hostess. Ahmad will speak for himself but I know he enjoyed meeting you and all the other friends very much.

Nazy-jan, it is indeed a small world! Several months ago I had the chance to know more a lady who used to go to a high school in Tehran less than a mile away from a dorm I used to stay, right on the path that I sometimes used to walk to school (at that time I was enjoying only the walk though :(

It was a real pleasure to meet you in person. I enjoyed the evening with you and your family and friends. Thank you for the amazing evening!

Salam Nazy Jan,

What a small world indeed! As they say one down (out of 50,000+ readers), many more to go. Only generous people with a big and kind heart are capable of opening their homes to others unconditionally and with a lot of pleasure.
