What is it that makes us connect? Why do we? We are born and die alone, no getting around it - and yet there they are those silvery strands that bind some of us together.

Why?

Sometimes you just know, right? You meet someone and there is an instant connection, and you feel like you've known them your whole life. It's one look, a journal entry online that you connect with, or a hand on your arm that does it. It doesn't have to be love, it can be a connection of friendship or anything... Do you ever wonder why it happens?

Is it haphazard and chaotic - these connetions? Do we randomly find eachother or is it kismet?

Do you think that everyone you have let into your life has something to teach/give you that noone else could give you?

Is there a reason for all this beyond a laugh and a beer?
