Whenever I would sit on the bus or a subway cart, I am always amazed by everyone around me. Some are asleep and nodding their heads to the rhythm of the train while others are nodding to the beat of their headphones. Some are shouting on the phone while some are shouting at each other. Others stare blankly with their heads in the clouds while some stare at their electronics. While some are carrying mountains of grocery while some only have their coin purse. The rest are standing while some are sitting. There are elder, young, babies... well, you get the picture.
But what's even more fascinating, is that no matter where we are all coming from or where or destination is, all of us, in this very cart, all shared 20 seconds of our lives together. A lot may happen in 20 seconds! And often times, not even a single word exchanged. Once those doors open, some leave, some stay. Our lives may or may not cross again.
The concept is simple- 1 year, 365 days, I will talk to 365 people and share their story here. Because at the end of the day, no matter how far apart we may seem, we all want the same thing- to live our dreams. And everyone deserves their chance to shine.
