I saw something at my last market that I hope I never stop noticing… 🥹
Older couples, wandering around hand in hand.
Not for the camera.
Not because anyone was watching.
Just because after all those years, that’s still where their hand belongs 🤎
It made me wonder how many years of memories were between them…
The first date.
The first home.
The children.
The arguments.
The laughter.
The hard times.
The good times.
And somehow, after everything life has thrown at them…
they’re still choosing each other.
One day, I hope I’m walking around the market, still reaching for the same hand 🙏🏼🥹
Maybe that’s the real happily ever after.
Not the ‘perfect’ life we’re yearning for - just someone beside you, holding your hand through all of it ♥️
