He is highlighting that the connection between two people can be strong and significant even if they have just known each other for a short period of time. This quote motivates us to look beyond the length of an associate and to concentrate on the quality of the relationship. It advises us that true friendship is not based on the quantity of time 2 individuals have invested together, however rather on the strength of the bond in between them. Tagore's words remind us that the depth of a relationship is not identified by the length of an acquaintance, however by the strength of the connection in between two individuals.
