You are never too old to love

My aunt was past away in about 2003; she was 84 year old and same age with my uncle. My aunts dead was a big attack to my uncle, they were married over 60 years. we expected that our uncle might be quickly dead long with my aunts dead. He attended to church more frequently and his mourning was nearly unbearable to witness, his only daughter lived a far place, so he had only find comfort from church partners and relationships in his family.

My cousin persuaded uncle sale the house that he and aunt had built together about 25 years ago. It was very hard to part with the home they built together. He was going to move to an apartment, but at the last moment, my cousin and he sew a new house to sale, that was close to his business. She helped him buy furniture and a flat screen television. He had not watched television for years because of his religion. he was like a kid with a new toy, but still sad for my aunts dead.

One day, my uncle called my cousin in Texas and told her that he was got contact with a lady who was often gone to church with my aunt previously. She can play piano, and the church of my uncle was looking for a new music accompany. This ladys husband was past away in seven ago. My uncle said that he just wanted someone to go out to dinner with and spend time with. We were happy for them, but we dont know how it would turn out, after all, they were both almost 87 years old.

They were like a loving couple and spend as much time to stay together as they could. They both had one kid, she has a son and he has a daughter. She had a house which was her father built for her when she married with her first husband, and she is satisfaction to live here.  

 

The other fly in the ointment was that they were both very busy people. They both still worked! They were in their mid-eighties and both had their own family businesses. She worked for her son who took over the family business and he had his own business.

They wont break away their church, which makes their relationship occurred clash,

Shortly, they are mentioned they wont, they are enter a new church together and plan to marriage. When he takes her to buy demand ring in Jewelry shop, these salespeople are deeply moved and wrote an article log in local newspaper named the true of Valentines day. They are prepared to the weeding. Due to they want to stay together immdly, while un-weeding means not in together, so they moved weeding date.

They are hold weeding in her house and decided live here after weeding. This really is a happily thing- both you think already spend over half life living and start new life. I never see my uncle happily like this. He is filling in love, and they are both love each other.

 

The clash in their relationship came when they neither wanted to leave their respective churches. She went to her Baptist church that she had attended for many years and he went to his, which was a Pentecostal. They decided to remain friends but nothing more. He was broken-hearted, but felt that his religion was the only way. She didn’t want to leave her church and didn’t like the extreme of his.

Before too long they realized that they did not want to be apart. They would find a new church together. They planned to marry. When he took her to a jewelry store and bought her a diamond, the employees were so impressed that they had a big write up in our own local paper, “‘The Truth’ for Valentines’ Day.” They prepared for their wedding. They moved the wedding date up because neither wanted to wait any longer to “be together,” and it was not proper to “be together” without being married.

They got married in her house, where they decided they would live. It was such a beautiful refreshing thing to see, two people who you would have thought had pretty much lived their lives, were beginning a new one together. I have never seen my uncle happier. He is still in love and she loves him as much as he loves her.

be together. what a simple but deep explaination about love. maybe we everyone should think and reflection ourselves.what's love on earth? what's marriage on earth? what's "be together"?? and what's happiness. we are always so young and childlike when we think ourselves totally entirely understand love, but maybe we don't actually.

Glad that this story happened in USA. Such love might be more complicate and difficult in China though.
