I was flipping through a recent issue of Runner’s World magazine and saw a brief mention of my husband’s home town. It caught my eye and so I took a closer look. Sure enough, the entire article was about this guy named Brandon Leslie that grew up in the same town as my husband. So I said to him, “Hey, there’s an article about some guy from Gallup in here.”
He grabbed it from me and said, “Hey! It’s Brandon. I graduated from high school with him. Save that for me, I need to read it.”
Through blogging I’m constantly reminded how small this world really is and how people from seemingly random parts of the world can have connections to others, to me individually. This was fun to find a connection to my husband’s past through a magazine.
Anyone else got stories about being reconnected with people from their past in interesting ways?
It’s a long article, but if you’ve got some time on your hands… it is a good one too.
