There are people we were drawn into that we can’t explain why at the moment. What it’s like is that we feel delighted to be around them, making any interaction, no matter how small or insignificant, better than nothing at all.
When they are around us, we want them to notice us, even acknowledge our presence, even with a simple glance and a smile.
And in that moment of connection, eye contact, or a shake of hands, we feel satisfied.
Then we whisper in ourselves, hoping they’d hear through the curves of our lips as we smile at them, “I’m glad you’re here.”
