I don’t think you fully grasp that this wasn’t just me finding a woman beautiful and smart and funny and fascinating.

That this wasn't just attraction.

That this wasn’t even in the same dimension as any of that, of what is now, to me, “the usual stuff”.

What it was is this:

For a fleeting instant, you made me feel something I’d never felt before. Something so rare that I feel I could have gone through several lifetimes and yet never experience.

For a fleeting instant, without you even knowing or trying, you made me touch the universe.
