"Oh wow" he says as he walks beside her window with a huge smile on his face. "How are you?" she says flattered with a smile. She looks away, waiting for a break in traffic as she hears a tap on her window. She giggles as he points to himself with a "would you like some of this?" look on his face. She shrugs her shoulders and shakes her head "No". He says, "ok cya". And they both part ways with a smile on their face.
Now let me see here. I'm pretty sure this scenario could have played out a variety of different ways. She could have said, "ok" even though her first reaction to this person was not that of attraction to them. He could have kept walking and been fantasizing about her for years thinking she was the one. But what happened was two people met at an intersection. He followed through on his gut feeling of "Oh wow" by verbalizing it. She followed through with her blushing and acknowledgement of his comment with "How are you". Simple enough. He saw an opportunity and said to himself, 'what have I got to lose' and tapped on the window to see if she was feeling the same. She wasn't and made no attempt to communicate otherwise. They both moved on, no hearts were 'broken', no pride or dignity lost, he took a chance and she listened to her truth.
They both took risks by following their intuition and it turned out fine. Another magic moment. Another opportunity given to trust yourself. Another moment to say yes to YOU!
If you think you've got something to lose, you've already lost it... it is always an opportunity for you find the truth for you.
"The world is all gates, all opportunities, strings of tension waiting to be struck." ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
