Free, thank you for sharing your experience. I don't know if anyone here will have insight that helps you or not, since it sounds like your experience was personal, and there is no way for us to know, really, what it was that you felt. You describe it as breathtaking, and say that it felt good and left you with a sense of well-being. Maybe it was a loving spirit speaking to you from the other side of the veil which separates the physical world and the spirit world. It does sound like you were touched by someone or something, and that whatever it was, it was benign and loving.

I would be interested in your thoughts and interpretation of your experience, since you are the only one who really knows what you felt. It sounds like it was a good and precious experience, and I hope that you hold it close in your heart and remember it. Use that memory to help you get through the bad times. You are loved.
