Having seen some of July's films this book felt very much in that realm. Moments spent with strangers that feel so crucial to who we are. I was reminded of moments driving where I wrote a sign for students in a bus or a driver in the car next to me offered me and my brother some of their fries as we happened to make eye contact at a stop light. This small moments can change the mood of a whole day, week, year, life.
Though there were many sexual moments, which for my asexual heart were a bit to much, some of these moments felt like the type of love I want. Interactions that our personal to me and my person. That can only be experienced by us. That is a deep love one that can not be forgotten or thrown away.
