The picture guy

The picture guy... a mystic coincidence?

This is the story - there's this guy who gets on my tram carrying a picture and gets off at about 2 stops from my stop. I always see him whenever I'm coming home from a SGI meeting. Now, that's not such a big deal if I see him regularly on a particular time on a particular tram, because it just is coincidence that he has the same schedule as I do in terms of taking public transport.

But lately I've been seeing him at different times in Melbourne! And all the times I've seen him, he carries a framed picture!

I was inspired to do this blog about a few weeks back when I suddenly decided to share this mystical coincidence by taking a picture of him. But I can't find those pictures from back then. But earlier on the way back home, lo and behold, I see him again! What are the odds, that the weekend I visit Melbourne that I see him! So below are the pictures of that guy in the tram, and after he gets off (you can kind of see the blurry outline of the picture frame he is holding).


And so it begs the question, where does he gets his picture? where is he taking it? is he an antique or art collector? why is he doing this? it's not like the pictures are valuable - because he's taking the tram at night. What is his story??

AH... the mystery of life.
