Lost and Found


Was taking 852 back home. It had just rained in the evening and the windows were misty. The guy sitting next to me was reading a book. I was lost in my own random thoughts. Suddenly he looked up and tried to peer through the misted windows.

"Where in the world are we?" he turned to me and asked.

"Lentor avenue," I replied.

Seeing the look of confusion on his face, I added, "Right after Yio Chu Kang station."

A look of comprehension.

"Thank you."

I smiled.

Sometimes we get so focused on something that we lose our way. It only takes the right person at the right time to put us back on the right track. To all those who guided me back when I got lost: thank you.
