投缘

伦敦是个大城市。每天工作社交遇见的人虽多,但却发现投缘的人寥寥无几,可以从“几面之交”晋升为挚友的人屈指可数。

这个可能跟年纪有一定的关系。年纪越大,性格越成形,耐性越少,就常觉得话不投机半句多。要深刻地了解一个人,需要时间的考验。所以,新朋友大多数都不如老朋友好。跟老朋友在一起很有默契,即使无言相对,也很舒服。

能在这时候碰上特别谈得来的新朋友,实属难得。就像Paulo Coelho说的:

“When you're young, you just believe there'll be many people with whom you'll connect with. Later in life, you realise it only happens a few times”.

人生得一知己已足矣,有这种缘份时就要好好珍惜。
