I asked this question: Have you ever experienced a fleeting moment of pure unadulterated bliss?
and Simply-Mel replied with this: I am thinking most of us have but maybe not ready to *share*. ;-)
Wanna share yours?
so, like the title says, this ones for Simply-Mel...
I think you're right that most aren't ready to share but I will share mine. But, I do warn you that it may be rather cryptic.
I will attempt to share my blissful moment, but once you have read this, you may wonder what on earth I was on about...
It is a person related blissful moment and the person in question would most likely not have any idea that they were responsible for said moment (nor should they be).
I was driving home one day in the not to distant past, alone in the car as I was baby free that day and I was coming back from seeing someone who I rate quite highly on my 'people that I know' list. And for the entire drive home, I felt light and happy and free and full of bliss. It wasn't a sex related bliss, nor a spiritual related bliss, but more of an emotionally free related bliss. Mind you, I guess one could say that is a spiritual related bliss, or at least transcending the everyday and feeling within that moment, one with everything that was in that moment.(If that makes any sort of sense??)
Let me try to tell you more:
I had spent a short period of time with this person who managed to make me feel heard.
Who managed to make me feel as though the odd thoughts inside my head were completely normal as they had similar views.
Who managed to make me feel lighter and worthwhile.
Who brought a smile to my face just reliving those precious minutes.
I don't know how else to explain it but it was a fleeting moment of unadulterated bliss.
I don't see this person particularly regularly and I cant say that they know me on a very personal level, but yet, in some way, I feel as though they do. It is definitely a one sided affair (my side of course) as I am too afraid to tell said person how I feel, but subconsciously believe that they know. (Typical woman way of thinking is it not?!)
So, there you have it, my moment was a feeling brought on by someone else, fleeting and only mine.

it sounds special. something to treasure.
That is special...she must be one awesome woman to make you feel like that.
ah, bliss indeed :)
I just might know what you are talking about....seriously, as I read this I thought about an incident 16yrs ago that made me feel very similar to what you just describe.
So thank you, not just for sharing (for me!) but for reminding me of that very special moment in my life.
