Lovefool

The moment I heard the first few notes, I started smiling. It brought up a memory so clear and complete, I could feel it like a mint under my tongue. FunDan, Godoy, and I - all dressd up after a semi-formal at one of the cheeziest bars in town (Cocamo, for those familiar with K-town.)

FunDan threw his tie over one shoulder, and was dancing with his eyes closed. Godoy sipped his beer and, as usual, was blissfully unaware of the stir he created amongst the womens. Jaw-droppingly beautiful and clueless - an endearing combination.

At that moment, I felt such love for them. Like a reverse-Grinch, I could feel my heart growing three sizes bigger. I love those moments, where the friends are being charming, and you have enough space to observe and enjoy them. As often as people disappoint me - and they do - there are moments, brief blips of time, where individuals shine with their own light.

Me too. Although I've never heard anyone put it quite this well. This feeling, you know.
