I am sitting at my desktop in my little office in my apartment from which I have, for the past 7 1/2 years, been able to observe the sidewalk in front of the neighbor's house. When I first started living here, I would daily see an elderly couple come walking every day up the sidewalk together holding hands. It made me smile thinking how wonderful to still hold hands after so many years together.
A few years after that, I began only seeing the old man walking every day. Today, I realize that I haven't seen him walking in ages.
I wonder what happened to them.
