Today I.....

....took a drive. As I was waiting for the light to change; I looked over to my right. And I watched as an elderly man held his hand to the small of his wife's back, (I assume it was his wife) as his other hand held the door of their car open for her. She climbed into her seat, he gently closed the door.....Out of her window, I could see her smile up at him. The moment seemed to last for ever; as their eyes met and held. He smiled at her in return.

For the rest of my day that image was stuck in my head... I wondered how many moments like that; they had shared... I wondered if they found certain times to be tough... I wondered if they ever thought that they had lost "that" person forever... I wondered if they had spoken words that were never going to be forgotten to one another; words of love, hurt, sadness, frustration, sadness, dismay... words of forgiveness...I wondered if they had made decisions that changed the path of their futures...One thing I did not have to do, was wonder if these two people were "happy"...Because that "look"...That "moment" spoke volumes....
