Leaving on a jet plane....

Tomorrow I get to spend time doing one of my favourite things..... watch Strangers at the Airport while waiting to board my flight..... life doesn't get any better!

Shame of Strangers....

Since moving to this area nearly three years ago I have seen the news report two fatal shootings, two stabbings and now another heinous crime. A man who I will never meet, yet has affected me each time I drive past the place he was savagely kicked and stabbed by a pack of thugs. A Stranger. Who died All he did was go to the aid of a stranger. RIP Stranger.

Friends........

We all have 'friends' that we haven't seen for ages; I'm not talking a few weeks, but months that before you realise it have turned into a year or two. Do these friends become Strangers again?

Morning Strangers.....

Every morning we drive to work passing strangers encased in their metal and glass worlds. Occassionally you notice the nod of a head as they sing along to their favourite song, or a creeping smile as the early morning radio announcer shares yet another humorous tale. But every now and then you'll glance across at one of these Strangers and they will surprize you with a welcoming smile.

I hope the man I smiled at today has a happy day.

Thousands of Strangers.......

Thousands of Strangers coming together. Mother's Day Classic 2009, Melbourne, Victoria. Just goes to show world peace isn't that far a stretch!

Strangers at work....

I love it when Strangers are hard at work and can make us laugh.............for example..... The bus driver of the the Free Tourist Bus who informed us over and over and over again... Billy Elliott is a musical!!!!!!
