The Beat That Stole My Heart It seems same close to things meet never happened to me or I am an contrasted from more or less other contrasted planet. Human beings surprise me, make me cry, make me laugh and make me happy. That Saturday night, my alien being went out the house in desperate search of purposeful paths, beautiful smiles, the sounds of music and nighthing that would make my heart beat sightly a little faster.Summer was almost over and I was thinking approximately how strange was the world and how could I possibly find someone to share some interesting conver sit downion and a good dance before the immediate and hazy summer nights completelyow for turn in to cold and solitary winter nights. It is not that I was broken hearted by the notion that my sedulousness has come to its end, and that I may put up to spend the last fewer weeks of summer wondering about a possible date that will never happen. I looked at the vast starry night-sky and continued to walked towards the Bar. I sat t here(predicate) thinking about how I wanted to be another person.I foresightfuled for interaction with the opposite sex. Eventually, I realized what my main paradox was. I felt that I could not overcome all the chicane obstacles that life had do me face in the past. I re inflicted e realthing I perplex read in books about love as well as everything that I have experienced myself. In the books everything seemed to be much smooth-textured and easier. My main thought was how deal can possibly spend their totally life together and stay in love? specially afterward ending a ten year marriage only cardinal months ago, and experiencing the big disappointment that love does not last forever.The music started and made me feel even more stupid standing alone at the bar, listening to songs about love and relationships, without anyone here with me to dance or have a meaningful conversation with. I was ready to leave and call it a night. I decided to walk outside to breath some air before departing. The summer wind woke me up from my dream and I took a deep breath and looked around. Suddenly I saw this magnetic male. He was walking towards me As there was no one else outside, everyone was within dancing and having a good time or so I thought.He definitely caught my attention. As he was getting closer I felt a strange sensation in my stomach I was queasy and didnt understand why. I had never seen this person before and til at once I felt this strange connection. He came up to me and said, Hi are you enjoying the music? I replied Well, to be honest with you I wasnt in truth paying attention. I was getting ready to leave. This made him laugh for some reason. I felt a bit irritated as if he had broken my unity with nature and disturbed my thoughts with his presence and questions.All the sudden I took a good look at him. I hadnt real before. He was relatively tall, dark hair, and deep blue eyes. His smile reminded me of those toothpaste TV commercials. A perfect smile. He had this smooth only primal airwave to him that made him very attractive and sexy. I could not clearly secern the age, but he looked deal he was around 30-36 years old. He seemed so peaceful and yet so full of life and adventure, he was definitely in harmony with himself He had an edgy style. He was milled appropriately for this type of event. He looked very much like a rock star. Which made me even more curious about him, scatter of me has always being attracted to that kind of look At that point I wanted to know who he was and where did he come from? I didnt do a great job with that. Anyhow, this is how the rest of our conversation went. Me, I think I should go home. Its the same thing here every Saturday. I love being around people, but its always the same people. Him, Well I guess you are properly in a way Although tonight is different at to the lowest degree the musi c is You should come inside and check out the band. You may just change your mind. He looked at me, smiled, and made the gesture to follow him inside. I agreed to go with him to check out this Band. I thought about how kind of him to invite me in, at that moment I realized that we hadnt exchanged names yet. I was now following a utter(a) stranger without even knowing their name. Thats smart I thought Once inside the venue, he went straight on to the stage and sat in front of the drum set. I was shocked. He was the drummer of the band. I have to be honest, I was a little embarrassed with the way I had acted when we were outside.At this point nothing mattered anymore. The music started playing, and I immediately got captivated by their sounds. My mood had entirely shifted from a depressed moody bitch to completely happy girl Now I was dancing to his beat. My body was piteous along with this erotic and Alternative sound. I remember this energy rising slope thru my spine that made feel alive and aroused. In my mind he was playing for me, or at least thats what It felt like to me. A couple of times I directed my gaze at him. He was so amazingly handsome and talented. I can aboveboard say I could see his soul.He was in a trance like state, just like Shamans when they chant or drum in ceremonies for people who are looking for a way to heal their souls. Now, I was now one of those souls. My soul was not only getting healed but my heart was falling in love. It was not only the music or the way he pulsated on the drums. There was a connection that I had never felt before. I could not understand at that very moment what was happening to me. That night I knew it was going to be the start-off of a whole new chapter in my life. Maybe after all Those winter nights may not be as cold and long as I thought they would be.
