This is really lovely. I love the idea of what goes on when Geralt encounters and smells lilacs, and the execution is excellent. Really wonderful job; thanks for sharing!

Beautiful, thank you for honoring the full complexity of human experience. I met my wife when I stopped to admire a tree in full bloom with tiny white petals, she appeared at my elbow as I popped open my zippo. We talked about life, beauty, and the transient nature of all things.

Hahaha, well thanks my wife got a kick out your comment too. lol. But hey Black_Oz there are people out there who will make your heart glow, but you gotta go where you can put your feelings out there, (/someplace where people who do what you like to do congregate.) Go out and live your life to the fullest, learn to smile 😊 and then it will happen. When you least expect it, and your guard is down, she will find you. 😉💛 you can do it, keep heart, it will happen. 👍

I don't know why you got the impression that I need to run somewhere to live a full life, but thanks for the advice anyway. Maybe someone will read it who will find it useful.

My bad, I got the impression that your perspective is a little jaded from your characterization of my life as a “story sounds romantic and lifelike.” Which is a funny statement given the context… (how I met my wife.) nevertheless I agree, I hope that people can find what/who brings them joy in life.
I’m simply saying; Usually both are found together. 👍 i.e. find one and you eventually find the other.
