We lose special people through the years. A person that just entered your life for a mere moment but made an impact. Or someone who played a lead role in your life. Maybe you shared a certain phase of life like university or just found your lives crossing paths. Maybe you didn't even meet but this person touched your life.
The loss is sad but it doesn't take away from the brilliance of the relationship. And yet for me, some memories seem to slip away or at least, be tucked deep away only to be released by some magic trigger. This has been increasingly bothering me. Not anymore. I recently became aware that my mind has created triggers that reminds me of that person in an instant. Those special people in my life are still with me.
One such occurrence...I was walking aimlessly along the city streets in Glasgow at lunch. I glanced into a shop window as I strolled by. As I caught a glimpse of drawings portraying jazz musicians, "Hi Cyndi" just popped into my head immediately. A thought so strong that I almost said it out loud. I did break out in a huge smile.
