A beautiful story the first time I read it and still a beautiful story this time. It gives me hope of finding my soulmate and true love. Although I'm not as old as the two in this story, I know well the looks, stares of pity, the chuckling, the snarled "No thanks"...at 51, I'm kind of resigned to living the rest of my life surrounded by friends and as lonely as a guy can be.
Who knows what happens after we pass from this life...maybe we do get to relive our lives and try to make them better or get a wish to go back and try again.
