Since I’d arrivedearly for the wedding, I found a table on the patio outside the lobby where Icould check-up on email and messages.
A few chairs away from me sat acouple (early thirties) playing cards. Coronas were on the table and I spotted wedding rings on each ofthem. They were laughing and beingsilly, looking like a couple of kids having fun on a Fall afternoon.
At one point, the guy’s phone rang. He glanced at it but then ignored it, took aswig of beer and went back to the cards. The woman said something, swatted him on the arm and he cracked up.
What most struck me was just howrelaxed they looked––how affectionately “at one” they were in their relaxation. They were lost in their own world and seemedbeyond delighted to be there!
Rose Franken, a popular writer fromthe mid-last century, once observed that, “Anyonecan be passionate, but it takes real lovers to be silly.”
Whatabout you and your partner––can you be silly with each other?!
