Choose at least four of the words below:
Imagine
Honest
Communication
Gratitude
Electric
Transcend
Release

In my quiet moments, I think back with gratitude and remember our honest communication. The connection and chemistry that so quickly and easily thrummed between us like an electric current. I used to imagine what it would be like to be together, to talk and laugh and smile and linger then touch, embrace, transcend the intimacy from emotional to physical and find our release.

I no longer fantasize about moments like that, but I am grateful to have felt what I did, to have experienced that kind of connection even if it wasn’t anything more than a dream.

It's so important for the soul to distinguish between fantasy & reality. It never hurts to get lost in some reveries with a shared connection as long as the mind knows that fine line, no matter the feelings. They do hit like lightning & hold a special place within!✨⚡

Bittersweet, but beautiful!

@SW-User Thank you. I got lost in that connection believing it was more than a fantasy. Sometimes you fall without realizing what’s happened until it’s too late. Waking yourself up from the dream is difficult but necessary.

@ChampagneOnIce There's a lot of emotional comfort and the grandiose effects take over. One has to realize them as illusions and we all have to admit, those illusions can carry us through rough times too. We're just humans that weren't designed to separate feelings from dreamscapes and recognize the dynamics as being special friendships...

I'm sorry you fell so deeply though. I'm sure it's been quite terrible, but as you said, it is most necessary to wake up as reality slaps you in the face. ..We can crash easily, but we mend slowly. At least you carry a bit of that person inside you..🤗

@SW-User Exactly. Well put, and thank you.
