Just Looking

One morning I saw…

Husband walks behind his very pregnant wife carrying in his hands a footstool and cushion to make her as comfortable as he can… I suppose. Not a shade of embarrassment…but I think a whole lot of pride.
Didn’t look silly, small or weird to me at all!


The scene took me back to college... there’s a girl who asks her boyfriend to tie her shoelaces because her hands are full of books. Boy obliges, gets on his knee, ties the shoelaces –in the middle of the college campus…and they are off on their way…happy. I on the other hand was sniggering in the background. How lame!

Strange isn’t it, the selflessness that love brings with it? Strange isnt it, how much my perspective has come to change?
