And I thought "Oh God, my chance has come at last"

This morning while I was on the bus to work, I saw perhaps one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.
I can’t really explain why it was beautiful. It just was.

There was this couple, they were probably in their early 70s, crossing the main road.

It was clear by how they were dressed that they were on a morning walk together. As they started to cross the road, they got about a quarter of the way, and the red pedestrian light started flashing to hurry them up. They immediately held hands with one another, and continued to jog across the road and onto the footpath.
They didn’t even look at each other. They just knew what to do and what the other one was thinking.

That kind of got me into this strange headspace about relationships, love, and all things related.
And I suppose I have come to realize that I have no trouble finding someone great, getting to know them, starting something, and even falling in love with them.
It’s just the staying in love that I have the trouble with.
