Such "chance" encounters and coincidences need not be with total strangers.
Between the ages of 10-13 I lived in Calcutta where some friends lived in a neighbouring block of flats. Then we left Calcutta and moved to Jakarta.
Two years later we had new next-door neighbours - our friends from Calcutta.
And nearly 50 years later, living in rural New Zealand, I discovered that one of these friends is living in my nearest town.
It is indeed a small world.
Peace
