Vanessa Grimaldi - Bachelor 21 - *Sleuthing Spoilers* #3

I don't know how to do screencaps but I remember the morning CH told them they were going to WI there was a quick shot of Vanessa and she looked amazing.

ugh she is so beautiful! but even more so I love her outlook and spirit and personality for Nick! I know it is all in each person's perception but IMO Nick is gorgeous as well and together they are just STUNNING.

Here I am, feeling as though I'm waiting for Godet.  Nothing much new on the V&N front but still front and center on my mind.
So rather than mining for facts, which I am predispositioned to do, I find myself reflecting on why this story is like no other for me personally.
In part I think it has the rich elegance of literary grace.  Have you ever found yourself overcome in the middle of a page, moved by the eloquence of a passage, so much so that in that moment the most eagerly anticipated thing is to intensify the pleasure by beginning again?  Have you held your breath while you search out the first word nestled among many that started the chain reaction?
I find the interactions between Nick and Vanessa have that intensity, that luminosity.  Together they fill physical space in a way that draws me close. Each interaction is like that rare unexpected passage in a novel that plays love notes on my heart strings.
Ode to the unlikely hero and his muse.

I was expecting a brand at the end of your sentence, so I could buy it. Only bronzer? I wear that after foundation, after pressed powder, then bronzer!

Oh my. Only bronzer and a smile. Damn these natural beauties! Girl can't help being a stunner- she woke up like this.  I recall the feeling...  (20 years ago).

Aw thankyou so much The Love Shrine continues to shine on.
And just checked what I posted for Week Six, this little gem was sitting in the candle circle (metaphor, there was only ever 1 candle ) Seems apt:

The Beloved by Paul Elouard
She is standing on my eyelids
And her hair is wound in mine,
She has the form of my hands,
She has the colour of my eyes,
She is swallowed by my shadow
Like a stone against the sky.

Her eyes are always open
And will not let me sleep.
Her dreams in broad daylight
Make the suns evaporate
Make me laugh, cry and laugh,
Speak with nothing to say.

I'm a little nervous for the next two episodes. I think it's two hurdles to overcome. The volleyball date which already had some exchange here concerning Vanessa. I'm interested to see how social media reacts. Then the following week we do get their 1 on 1 but then its the supposed showdown between Vanessa and Rachel. I hope that doesn't air. I don't want Nick and Vanessa's time together to be overshadowed by that. I mean, next week is the Corrine going to Nick's room and sending Danielle M home. I hope they just focus on that and not some catty fight between Nick's two potential final women.

Do we know what the Rachel and Vanessa tiff is about?

Far as I know, no. RS is the only who's reported on it and the only thing he's said is that the women sided with Rachel but he admitted he didn't know what started it and what it was about.
