A.


There is perhaps in life an unequivocal moment that we all as small human beings have. It's a flash of light, the flutter of a heart, or the turn of a head. A glimmer in a kindred spirit, a second of acceptance, or a recognition of redemption. The shape of a mouth, soft hands on a face, or a poem said aloud. Something. Somewhere. It happens, and it is clear and defined and unambiguous. You can't take it back. You can't even change it. You become unmoored from the lines that you thought had tied you so tightly to everything you ever knew.
It simply happens. 
And we live with the aftermath that takes place in our souls and bodies. Whether it be painful because it leaves you vulnerable, or painful because it is so incandescently beautiful, it doesn't matter. You simply live with it. 
It's only a moment. But it changes everything. 
So.
When was your's?
