We maybe strangers when we meet,  
but as friends, we depart  
and so the world goes round  
with you never knowing  
whom you will meet on the street.  
The perfect stranger  
of any religion, race or creed  
could end up being your best friend  
by the end of the day.  
The next time you go walking down the street  
your next friend or best friend  
you might just chance to meet.
