Cheryl T. of New York writes:
"I have lived in my neighborhood for nearly 8 years now
and every day since I've lived here I see a lovely senior
couple walking hand-in-hand. They're not doing anything
special (usually shopping for fruit or window shopping)
but they always look so happy. They laugh together and
touch each other like they're a new couple in love.
One day I didn't see them. I didn't think anything of it
until I didn't see them for several days, which turned
into weeks and then months. I wondered if they had moved
away. I hoped not - even though I had never spoken to
them I enjoyed seeing them still in love after so many
years.
Then one day they reappeared! The man is now in a
wheelchair. That hasn't stopped them... every day I see
them together on the sidewalks again, the woman pushing
the man's wheelchair, and still talking and laughing
like newlyweds. It always brings a tear to my eye. I
hope to be so lucky when I'm their age!"
