"Perhaps life is full of many first times, but there are few that we will remember, after some time, as the beginning of experiences that will later become everyday life, habits, routine. That first time can be the light that shines or the shadow that bears witness to that unique and unrepeatable beginning."
I love how you captured the essence of those initial moments, when everything is new and full of possibilities. The metaphor of light and shadow is powerful, and the way you describe the transformation and attraction is very evocative
