Today's moment snuck up on me. So much so, that earlier today I had a different blog moment drafted to share. That shifted after tonight's dinner with new, and amazing, friends.
Today EQ and I spent quite a bit of time filling our day with questions shared, answered and unveiling new questions to dig into. Each question brought light to a new path for the two of us. This, the man I love. Very exciting in its own right. Today, together we were inspired to keep digging ever deeper to find answers to those questions.
After a cheeky post-work conversation we were on our way to meet EQ's closest friends for dinner. And while I was very much expecting an incredible evening (very easy to feel that it would be such as these are two very incredible people!), I had no idea what the evening's conversation would unfold.
Dinner began by opening a Gary Farrell Cabernet Sauvingnon, likely the mate to the Chardonnay we shared only four weeks ago. The first to lift a glass was, oh, let's call her TREE. (Tree because she is very grounded, but very flexible and calm. Much like the roots of a tree, grounded, yet the leaves ever swaying in the wind.), Well Tree's sweet husband teased her that the first to lift the glass was responsible for the toast of the evening. With a look of hesitation, Tree tentatively began her toast. As she eased into the toast, confidence found her and she dove into a world of words that mirrored those of the relationship EQ and I have built over time. The synchronicity was chilling. Her toast was most poignant, deeper than she was aware. (pardon the pun!)
With tears building and beginning to wet my eyes, I shared the story and much deeper meaning behind her toast words of "deepening relationships." Bottom line: EQ & I built our relationship based on two simple words: "dig deeper". It brought goosebumps.
The rest of the evening was like a dream. Time seemed to slow. With the sentiment of "deepening relationships" hanging in the air, EQ found words to share with me that will forever deepen our relationship. A very special moment shared with very special and aware friends.
Throughout the rest of the evening, deep conversation continued to flow along with the wine and celebrations throughout the delightful meal we enjoyed together.
Moments deepening relationships with new friends.
Moments ever digging deeper in love.
