One Day....

I'm a total sucker for true love amongst the elderly. I admire couples that have shared so many decades together and yet are still so very happy. It's very rare nowadays. Being able to witness gray-haired couples holding hands out in public after more than 50 years of marriage is simple joy for me. Even though they are strangers to me, I feel touched with their happiness as if it was a contagious disease minus the negativity and the deadliness. As odd as it may seem, the feeling I get just channels complete bliss for me. Now that's LOVE! One day, I too hope I will be just as blessed with a husband that I can tolerate and who will put up with me. Seriously, though. To find genuine true love is a gift that no one should ever let go nor take for granted. Once you read this article, your heart will just melt. Makes you just want to spread love everywhere!
