Mar 20 2011: I love this thought. Whether or not it seems practical - it is a magical way of thinking about the world, and a way to connect with the people that surround us. I recently had a similar experience, where I got to know someone, who had been around in my life before, but who I never took notice of. But found that she was working at the bar the night that I had my first date with my long-term boyfriend - years ago. And that she remembered us, as anonymous people sitting there, and I remembered her as the anonymous waitress who gave us a free drink. It was a tiny interaction, but somehow magical to find, that she participated in that important event.
