Yesterday I was jogging down the street towards the bus station, hurrying on my way to a job interview. Now, I wasn't sprinting, but I had a good pace going on. I wasn't skipping merrily for the joy of it, and neither did I look like I was just about to stop. In fact, I looked driven - staring straight ahead and everything.
And yet, one of the Buddhists still tried to engage in conversation with me.
More than that, he actually stepped towards me with arms swinging wide, and joyfully exclaimed "I've finally found you!!"

... WHAT?



WhatwhatwhatwhatWHAT? Found me how? Why? Had I met him before? I certainly didn't remember ever seeing him before. Was I his True Love? The Messiah? Buddha incarnate? I'm not that fat!! What is this? Is this the latest technique to stop people? Because it might have worked if I hadn't been running to catch a bus...
