A perfect match for my mood

Awestruck, I watch a vivid, complex scene of natural beauty, utterly sublime in its effects on my senses, blossom like a flower, coming into full bloom on the edge of eternity.

"Mr. Visionquest?"

On the edges of this scenic splendor lie hints of possibilities unknown, lending a sudden and inexplicable air to all that is strange and mysterious.

"Mr. Visionquest?"

Without taking my eyes off the scene before me, I raise my hand and touch my companion's shoulder. "Michael, I must confess: I have never seen anything like this. It’s a perfect match for my mood."

My companion says nothing, does nothing, knowing that no words or actions are necessary.

For the moment, I am content just to be.
