The day I met RZ

Lately, I have been going to the climbing wall pretty regularly and have become pretty good at climbing. These climbs are color-coded routes up a wall and they have to be "set". The setters name is written on the first stone in the climb. One of my favorite "setters" is a person whose initials are RZ (thats all it says on the credit!). Ever since I climbed my first RZ route, I knew there was something special about him (I also instinctively thought it was a HE).

Today while belaying "General", a man came up to me and told me some do's and dont's in a very matter-of-fact way. For some reason, I could feel a power in his presence. There was something about him, and something told me he is RZ. I really don't know why, but I had this strong sense saying to me that this is RZ. Later I went up to him and asked whether it was him and it was!

Surreal experience. Totally surreal.

I also realized that truly talented people talk the least and do the most. There was an aura of peace, knowledge and confidence around RZ.... I think I found another role model today.

Good night!

My idea of a perfect first date

A conversation,
a connection,
a memory,
a blush,
a smile,
a look,
a walk,
a flirty line,
a brush of fingers,
a rush of blood,
a burning desire,
drawing her close,
and promising to meet again.
