Like Ferris Bueller said, "Life goes by quickly, if you don't stop to look around you might miss it." That almost happened to me yesterday on the plane alone, coming home from house hunting in South Carolina with Amy.
I was sitting by an elderly couple who were playing gin rummy when some younger man came up and talked to them. He obviously knew them but how I did not know as I was wearing head phones. He ended up giving the husband on the isle the last inch or two of a chocolate bar and went back to his seat.
He (the husband) unwrapped the candy and looked at it. It was dark, delicious, high end chocolate. He handed the entire thing to his wife. She accepted it with raised eyebrows. He simply smiled at her.
She tilted the bar once to examine it and broke it in half handing a portion to him with a newlywed smile that he immediately returned. They both ate the chocolate and went back to enjoying their card game.
This entire interaction took no less than 3 or 4 seconds, but the significance of it was not lost on me.
