Something nice... in the rain

The gentleman told me that he needed to go to
the nursing home to eat breakfast with his wife.
I inquired as to her health.
He told me that she had been there
for a while and that she was a victim of Alzheimer's Disease.
As we talked, I asked if she would be upset if he was a bit late.
He replied that she no longer knew who he was,
that she had not recognized him in five years now.
I asked, 'And you still go every morning, even though she doesn't know who you are?'
He smiled as he patted my hand and said,
'She doesn't know me, but I still know who she is.'
True love is
neither physical, nor romantic.
True love is an
acceptance of all that is, has been, will be, and will not be.
The happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
they just make the best of everything they have.
'Life isn't about
how to survive the storm,
But how to dance in the rain.'
