" One day, I bumped into...... One day, I bumped into a stranger in a library who reached the same book, which I was pulling out from the book shelf. Yes, we all see the same situation in movies, but the difference here was that the stranger was neither a woman nor a girl but an elderly man of around 70 years, and the surprising part was that we both pulled the book together. It's neither spiritual nor scientific, and not even literature. It was Mark Twain's classic, "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer." I looked at him and let go of my hands as I said, "I'm sure your grandchild will love it." He slowly turned around, smiled, and placed his hand on my shoulder before responding, "Me too!!! I have read it many times, and the more I read, the more I get younger. And then I walk down into memory lanes to join the adventure at the forest in our native village with my good old friend, just like Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn." I could feel the energy in him as he was describing his childhood days!!! ©Krishnan "
