knowing me knowing you

recently i met someone i used to know a long time ago. and i realized in a new way why we stopped knowing each other. all the feelings and emotions of then came back crystal clear as it hit me that though we might not be aware of all the logical details of our gut-instinct-decisions at the time we make them, slowly surely, time unravels and the haze of feelings lift to reassure you that you knew what you were talking about, even back then, many years ago.
