Love is Blind

After gardening I notice some annoying bumps on the back of my hand. My first instinct is to worry in case they are warts.

Next day, at breakfast, I observe the rash appears less inflamed; it must be the result of something I’ve touched in the garden.

I say to Joe, ‘Feel this, what do you think it is?’

‘Braille, it says, “I Love You”, but it’s missing the comma.’

‘But ‘I Love You,’ doesn’t need a comma.’

‘Then it says, ‘immensely and deeply!’

How can I worry about a few bumps after such an interpretation?

      Dear Margaret Rose, how lovely to hear from you again after some years! I wonder, are you still living in Victoria?

As you can see blogging is a thing of my past, but writing has become something I can immerse myself in and become quite antisocial. I hope you’re finding writing a solace as well. Best wishes to you M-R, thank you for keeping in touch.

    I haven’t read anything in a long time as genuinely romantic and heart-thrilling as your husband’s words. He sounds like a dear, intelligent, creative and loving person. Lucky you! And lucky him for having someone like you to love!
