Flight AC888 YOW > LHR 21 Jul 2001
Description
I have tried contacting you in so many different ways over the last twenty one years. I remember everything about that moment. I think of you often and wonder where you are. I hope you are well. I believe that one day we will see each other again. The first time I felt your presence was at the baggage collection area, after our flight from Ottawa to Heathrow with Air Canada. It was about 7.30am on 21 Jul 2001. I remember the feeling of being drawn to you before I even saw you, like the strongest magnet was pulling me towards you from my core and at the same time, it was as if someone had got hold of my head and turned it around to where you were standing with your friend behind me. I know I kept walking, but it was as if it was all happening in slow motion. I remember how you looked at me and talked to your friend at the same time. How we couldn't keep our eyes off each other. I remember what you both looked like and what you were wearing. I got my bag and went to where you were standing, but you had gone. I walked around for ages and then went to the meeting point in arrivals just outside customs and waited for you but couldn't see you. I went back to arrivals at Heathrow on the 10th and 20th anniversary. I know it doesn't make any sense, but I know that I have never felt anything remotely like that before or since. I wish you well. I hope life has been kind.
