I have watched people for a long time, I see them interact on the street, on TV and in small areas like stores and shops. I see husbands and wives holding hands as they do their errands, young lovers with their arms around each other. I see the elderly couples look at each other in a way that expresses so much.
It has been a long time since I have done any of these things. The family has long departed, daughters married and raising their own children, sons off on a new career with wives and children. Meanwhile I am sitting here writing wishful thoughts, looking at what I would like life to be like. A women by my side that can laugh, tease, and sing little tunes, even if she can't sing. Someone to do errands with, pick out household items and even tell me that my shirts are worn out. Someone that likes short walks on sunny days, hot cocoa on cold nights and likes to sit next to me watching a movie. Someone who can show me a different side of life, one that I have never experienced. Since that may never happen, and especially since no one is going to read this anyway, I will say that I am still hopeful that I may have life changes before I vanish from this earth.
