I THINK I MET AN ANGEL

 It was tuesday evening, i had just gotten off work. Normally, i would walk home with my coworker but i remembered i had to pick up a few things from the mall for my Bff.


 I hopped on the bus, frustrated and tired. I had a rough day at work and couldn't wait to jump on my bed for comfort. I sat down slowly, inserted my earpiece in my ear, reached for my ipod in my bag and searched for my favorite song. It was 'The weekend's version of trust issues'.This was the only way i could calm down.The song began to play when i suddenly realized that the person sited beside me had been trying to get my attention. I removed the earpiece from my left ear.


 It was a black guy, he had dreadlocks and i believe he was average height. He looked at me and said 'miss, i love your braids'. I smiled hard as i said Thank You.We started talking from then on. Normally, i would not have a long conversation with someone i barely knew.I decided to put that aside, it was interesting anyway.We had a full blown intellectual conversation. It was the best conversation i ever had with a complete stranger. He was very much like me,same values, same ideas, i was extremely overwhelmed. I had never met anyone who was just like me. I nodded my head so many times in agreement to everything he said. This was very unlike me because i never agree with anything a stranger says.


 The conversation got deeper, he told me his whole life story in approximately five minutes. He needed solutions to a major situation he has been passing through. I advised him and he almost reached out his hands to hug me. He was overjoyed! 


 I then decided to open up, i told him a few things about  myself and an issue that had been bothering me. He gave me solutions, my issue has been resolved. It was too good to be true. At this point, i was convinced that he was either my clone or psychic. 


 I was lost in the conversation, all i wanted to do was sit on the bus all day and talk to this stranger. My stop got closer, i pressed the bell, picked up my bag, smiled and said 'it was nice to meet you' and i ran out right before the door closed. 


 I watched the bus zoom off as i waved at my new friend, then i realized 'DANG!!!! WE FORGOT TO EXCHANGE CONTACTS!!!!'. There i stood, speechless, i didn't know the name of the most awesome person i met. I didn't have his number or at least his email address.O_O All i remembered was his face. I didn't even know his first name.Where was i supposed to start my search from? Was i supposed to google 'the guy on the bus'? Or draw his face and post it online to see if there was a match? 


  There i stood, for five bad minutes,perplexed.I had gained so much from a twenty minute conversation with a complete stranger, my problems had been solved, my mind had been opened to new ideas, i was in a better mood... and I DID'NT EVEN KNOW HIS NAME. I said to myself 'I THINK I MET AN ANGEL!' O_O 


HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO THANK HIM? :O( I got home and prayed to God, i thanked him the best way i could. I know there must have been a good reason why i didn't get his name and contacts.
