Most of us are lucky enough to meet at least a few people every day. If not in person we "meet" them via phone or internet. Some are acquaintances, some friends and some we have never seen before and may never see again. What is it in these meetings that causes the change say, from acquaintance to friend, from friend to lover? Shared interests or maybe completely diverse interests which open new ground to both. A shared experience, be it good or bad can forge a friendship to last a lifetime. But what is that "spark" that sets it off? Even more puzzling to me is how this happens, and happen it does, through internet meetings when there is so little to work with apart from the written word or maybe a webcam. No facial expressions, the nuances of which are so telling. No body language. Then there is the knowledge that all may not be as it seems with the shared information. But that is not an avenue I wish to travel down at this point. It is that spark which intrigues me. Perhaps it is something which we should all be thankful for and not question too deeply for fear that we snuff it out..........

this is a lovely sentiment my dear twopeas and i'm glad our paths have crossed. happy thanksgiving from across the pond.
As I said, I've had that spark, and I don't know how or where it comes from, but as you say don't question it, just follow your heart or you will forever regret not doing so.
