"This is pretty scary…" says one of
the guys before the kissing begins. Isn’t it always?
Strangers or almost familiar faces replicate, since
the beginning of times, and over and over again until the end of humanity, the
fear and the nervous laughs that come before a first kiss (and the ones that
follow). But, isn’t the repetition of the inhaled passion that occurs during and the undisguisable
smile of joy that appears immediately after (and lingers for a while) that makes
us all human?
The truth is that nothing compares to the
beauty and the emotion carried by a first kiss between two people. The stare
into another’s sole through his/her eyes and the embrace that instinctively
occurs every single time. And, strangely enough, with our eyes closed, we feel
like we can conquer the world.
This video evidences the perfection of some of those
moments, usually missed because is quite impossible to pay attention with the eyes
wide shut.
Thus, today I say thanks to those
strangers for sharing such precious moments with the rest of us. And, for
reminding me that, in fact, I am a hopeless romantic.
