Moment of Zen: My twin

Guy caught up with me ascending a hill. Here are the things he had that are similar to the things I had:

+ Beard and safety glasses
+ Reflective jacket and messenger bag
+ Blinky lights and fenders

We chatted at stop lights about the weather. He took off and shouted, "Be safe!"

My doppelganger wishes for my safety.

Moment of Zen: Cold Hands

Approaching the same intersection, me from the south, he from the east, both sitting straight up, me with my hands in my armpits, he with his in his coat pockets.

We each smile a half smile and nod at each other.
