Ever wake up one day and everything you thought about something or believed just doesn't seem to be anymore?
I have been content with my life and how things are in it until I was on my way to work today and saw this sweet little old couple sitting in Dunkin Donuts. Then my entire drive to work was just reflecting on my life and what I really want in it and how I want it to turn out.
So far I have realized that while I have been ok with waking up and going to bed alone, I am just not anymore. I can't say that I have been a fan of relationships or getting married, in my life neither seems to ever work out. But this couple was just a reminder that it is possible for one to work out and last.
He was sitting across the table from her holding her hand and completely just paying attention and caring about anything she said. She was sitting there paying complete attention to him and giggling like a high school girl with her first crush. Clearly they were still very much in love with each other and each others best friend.
Watching them was one of the sweetest things I have seen in a long time. Or maybe just at a point in my life that I was able to really appreciate it. Before I left I did find out that they have been together for 59 years. And he smiled at her and said and it still feels like yesterday that I met her.
So wether or not I will ever be able to say I have that in my life it was nice to be reminded that it is possible.
