I was travelling in India from Bengaluru to Trichy by train recently. I got acquainted with a businessman from Mysore. We exchanged our phone numbers. After a week, I forgot about the person. However, I was pleasantly surprised when he called me to wish in advance for the new year.
It is my experience that, mostly, train friends do not continue their friendship once they alight at their destination. This person proved different. Of all things in life, such friendship is the best asset.
