Went to a Wine Tasting in the city last night with Michael and Brett. It was a small room with one long table. Twenty-six strangers proceeded to share a meal and taste some wine.
I was so fortunate to be sitting next to a friendly gentleman who immediately introduced himself to me. His wife sat on the other side of him. The conversation eventually revealed that I lost my husband recently and that I had 39 wonderful years with him. Dave worked very hard to be attentive to his wife, Melanie, and to continue to engage me in conversation about my life. I had a rare opportunity to share some warm, happy memories....
I don't remember every aspect of the food we ate or the wine we drank. I do remember that I smiled all evening and I was able to talk about my Mr. Wonderful without being sad at all. At the end of the night, these two strangers hugged and kissed me good-bye and thanked me for restoring their faith in true love...
