I thought you might find this word and description of it “a soulful one” with its origins in Russia:
Toska
"No single word in English renders all the shades of toska. At its deepest and most painful, it is a sensation of great spiritual anguish, often without any specific cause. At less morbid levels it is a dull ache of the soul, a longing with nothing to long for, a sick pining, a vague restlessness, mental throes, yearning. In particular cases it may be the desire for somebody of something specific, nostalgia, love-sickness. At the lowest level it grades into ennui, boredom.”
Ah ha! It was all right there, the dance you summon within the words you chose to describe a beautiful moment in time! I’m learning, your incredible use of the English language is what is fascinating and captures your reader’s attention and imagination, pointing us to our own dreams, desires, wishes and thoughts. Tadao Andō, with his own complicated successful life, much like you, continues to provide inspiration for all who need it. :)
