where the parallel lines intersect
Imagine place with nothing around - no life, no roads, not even birds flying above - just a plain desert as far as an eye ca see. The place that could be described as "middle of nowhere". And what could be more natural in the middle of nowhere than an... intersection. Well, if you think about it, you've goth there somehow, which means you've followed some path, not necessary known and described and mapped, but it led you there. And it can easily intersect with someone else's path - similar to yours by the means of bringing the person to the same place. Hence, the crossroads. |
