Erin Rose Jackson shares a touching story of her friendship with Sue, a 70-year-old stranger she met in a New York City diner. After an instant connection during their first meeting, they decided to reunite exactly one year later, despite having no contact in between. The reunion at the same diner not only reaffirmed their bond, but also showcased the beauty of unexpected friendships. With plans for future meet-ups, their relationship exemplifies the joy and significance that come from opening oneself to new people and experiences.
Life is a lot more worth living when you open yourself to meeting new people, sharing old stories, and building fresh bonds.
Even though it may be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to randomly come across a stranger you resonate with, it is even rarer to keep the bond as beautiful as ever.
Erin decided to meet Sue a year later, expecting to see her despite being told by everyone she was being dreamy.
On December 27, 2024, they reunited at the same diner, proving that the bond they created was genuine and lasting.
