Everyday that I work (in a grocery store, giving out food samples) I see couples, young couples in high school giggling; early 20s, living together for the first time; couples in their 40s with 2 kids; and my most favorite kind of couples, the ones that have been together for decades.
I see these men and women together, the women is always walking from isle to isle trying to find things on her list and the husband just follows her with the cart.
I can see newer couples having the man get annoyed, or the woman frustrated; but the older man always just looks at his wife with a little smile like she is the only girl in the world and she can do no wrong.
I love these older couples because they are just so calm, so happy, so wrapped up in each other. They know the secrets of life, they have learned not argue over petty things, or worry.
For them, it seems that between them it's not a relationship anymore..its a life.
Nothing is sweeter to me than a pair of liver spotted hands holding on to each other.
They can see the beauty in each other. To them the wrinkles, and thin hair of now are the same as the rosy cheeks and bright eyes of their youth.
This my friends, is love.
