Do I dare?

Take this chance? Will fear hold me back? I don't know. This is so new, so unexpected, and so amazing that I don't have the words for it. I wish T'zuri were here. I wish I could speak to her about it. I wish we could toss this around, explore it together, and look at it from all sides. I have not missed her this bad in a long time. Yet, I have not felt less alone in a long time either. I don't feel invisible any more. I don't feel unseen. I feel - special. I feel as if someone sees me for who I am. I feel as if my thoughts, my words, my feelings have weight. That is a feeling that could give a heart wings. The question is, do I let my heart take to this fledgling flight knowing that it might crash down to the ground or do I hide my head in the sand for fear of t hat crash? I don't know if there really is a choice. Its like a falling star hurtling toward the ground. It seems to be happening, even when I wasn't so sure I wanted it to.
