In my early twenties, I was a having a bit of a time of it at home, and so treated myself to a long weekend in Paris with the intention of just visiting galleries, museums etc and people watching.
I was enjoying a stroll near Montemartre and decided that i needed a coffee. I found a small cafe with only two tables outside. The other was taken by a very elderly couple.I sat down, the waiter took my order and i lit up a ciggy.
That's when it started!! The old woman from the couple just started nagging her husband. On and On and On. louder and louder. I was getting quite embarrassed as it was such a tirade!! Finally. The old man, just reached across the table and put his fingers over her lips. Then he stood up and walked around the table to his wife. He placed his hands under her chin and raising her head up planted the most tender kiss you have ever seen on her lips. She just looked at him with absolute and pure love in her eyes and nothing more was said until they both walked off about ten minutes later arm in arm!
My question is;
How awesome are the French?
No..... laughing , That moment planted a definition of real love in my mind that will stay with me forever!!!
Apart from Birth of your babies or getting married, Have any moments really defined something for you?
If so, how did it happen and what did they define?
