Once a decade it seems that I meet someone who is sublimely worthwhile. Once a decade I have a brief moment of levity with this amazing connection of friendship, heart, and passion that, years later I still look back and dream about.
There is something to be said about an unforced, unguided, natural affair. So rarely we find those that connect with us on such a level. It is as disheartening as it is uplifting when it happens.
