spark

I was in a bit of an altered state last night and completely forgot about the blog. I had a date yesterday. It started at three in the afternoon and ended at ten at night. All that was planned was coffee and a game of Scrabble at the beach, so it was an unexpectedly long time together. It was lovely. The time flew by. There was spark. This hasn't happened in so long it was a bit disorienting. Okay, a lot disorienting. But in a good way.

I am not confident that anything will come of it, but I'm so thankful to have a reminder of that feeling. I need to mark it down-- How good it is to be with someone with whom there is mutual attraction, to feel special, to feel beautiful, to feel that electric potential, to feel completely at ease.

Strangely (for me), I'm not finding it too hard to 'hold it lightly'. I don't know what will come of it and I'm choosing not to worry it to death. For the moment, I'm just deeply glad for the encouragement. It's a hopeful little spark.
