Sometimes you meet that one person and everything just comes naturally. They start to remind you of all the aspects in life you'd somehow let slip your mind. They remind you of what it's like to go outside after it rains and to smell the moist, calm air and take it all in, making everything okay for a few moments. They remind you of what it's like to be a little kid and be happy enough to dance around your bedroom, singing into near objects like your favorite hairbrush. They remind you of what it's like to wake up on Christmas morning with that warm excited feeling, I bet you thought you'd never feel that Christmas morning feeling again. They remind you of what it was like when you were little, and you would build a fort in your living room with all the blankets and chairs you could find. Then you'd crawl inside and lay down and feel like you had created your own little world and everything was good.
They came along and whispered to your soul, "follow me", and you followed. Not knowing what you were doing or why, you just knew that this perfect person had come along and reminded you of the quieting smell after a downpour, the overjoyed "dance it out" mood, the warm feeling on Christmas morning, and what it was like to be in your own perfectly created little world. Those feelings were all natural, and things obtained and experienced as a kid. Maybe we spend our whole lives searching for that one person who in some way lived a similar childhood as you, and brings back those innocent and soothing feelings of being a kid and having your biggest worry that week be what new toy you would play with tomorrow.
