Either you get it or you don’t…

Ever have the weird-ass sense
of ‘I know YOU know I know?’
Yeah, THAT thing…

I have been repeating this specific sensation since joining LJ. The sense of reading myself in other journals. That sense of someone ‘getting’ me, belonging, relating, being.

I figured something out. I completed a puzzle that I didn’t even realize I was working. I didn’t even know it existed, flipping through entries…POW! The last piece fit into place and I saw this great image, this great realization.

I almost forgot about it.
Then I received a most unexpected gift on the same subject.

I wanted to shout from the rooftops. Yell, “Look what I figured out!” But I paused, I waited. I got my answer without yelling, without asking – actually – and left everyone else to work on the puzzle without me ruining the end.

It was the best gift.
I have wanted something just like it for a long time. Thank you. I will pass it along when I am through…
