You just never know what life will bring! When you’re in your 80s and have just lost your spouse, you may think that there’s not much to look forward to in life. But with a positive attitude and an open mind, there are still possibilities.
After 62 years this couple is reuniting through a cross-country trip. They were high school sweethearts before each got married, and now each of their spouses had recently died. They reconnected through the internet and talked on the phone a few times, and then they decided to meet… again!
If you’re wondering what life has to offer, know that with a little patience and a positive attitude something will come along, and all you’ll have to do is say “yes!”.
