A personal message to Luna Nina

In this post, I linked to Luna Nina's site underneath the words "crappy daily journal blogs." In response, you sent me an email, and posted this entry which refers to me (at the end of the post):

I'm not gonna link to the site cuz I don't wanna. But part of me is really entertained by the fact that someone who claims to ignore "crappy daily blogs" found enough time to link to me AND to leave me a bogus sappy comment...

First of all, I want to make it clear that it was just meant as a light-hearted joke, it's unfortunate that it was taken the wrong way. If I said your blog was great, the few people who visit this site, knowing me, would think I was being sarcastic. So, if I say your site is bad, they think it's good. I was, however, a bit upset that you don't have a picture of yourself at your site. If there is one, please let me know. As for the original comment, I'm sorry you found that "sappy." It wasn't meant that way...

It's just that, well, it's a bit difficult for me to express, but did you ever instantly know you were going to like and trust someone for a long, long time?

Maybe you only read their blog for a short while but it seemed that you had known them your whole life, as if there were a timeless connection between you.

As you read these words and remember those amazing feelings, it's good to know that sometimes life has a way of making us remember those things, right prior to discovering that we can experience those feelings again...

With me... in my experience, it's the kind of thing that can't be forced and no essay or words can create it. Words and appearances are only expressions, the vehicles that contain the essence that moves us. It can only happen naturally as the expression of an energy between two people, but when it does...it's just like that feeling of incredible bonding, when all the barriers melt and drop way, and two people come together, fused into one spiritual essence, the mingling of energies feeding one to the other, building and increasing and intensifying, mingling into an expression of aliveness that words can initiate but never capture fully.

It has instead to be indulged inside your own imagination...dwelled on, contemplated, experienced, deep, deep inside you. I do not know if you are the kind of person that can imagine enjoying that that kind connection, with someone wonderful who deeply moves you.

But if you could envision the possibility and feel it opening now before you, drawing you irresistibly forward, how powerfully could you feel that urge to learn more?
