She understood her in the capital of her home country. Her first impression when she saw her was that she is charming. She carries with her the easy air. Very beautiful.

She has taught her how to bring out the smoky flavor in any dish, the right way to peel onion etc. But the one thing she learned from her is very precious and eye opener. It was this- the inspiration behind a romantic song can be anything. Not necessarily a romantic partner or a specific relation but just about anyone or anything.

This theory was so enchanting for a 19 year old girl who has always loved the idea of different perception. One reason that teen was so thrilled to hear it was because it is so different from people she was surrounded by. It showed her not to take everything to its face value if you can customize it in your own angle.

This theory she, time and again, keeps applying to the things that feels heavy to her. And that girl is so grateful to this woman and appreciates her. She also wonders about what made her think this way, does she still do it, and what new things she has evolved into.

Have you ever met someone like this? Someone who has made you wonder about the choices you make, made you take one step back or two and has nudged you to look at the bigger picture and then decide. Those are the keepers.
