Remembering today.....

Today I will remember not wanting the wake-up call that came with an invitation for breakfast out....but happy it did,  and happy we went.
I will think about the elderly couple at the bathroom, how he asked me to help his wife, apologizing and thanking me in the same breath. I'm sorry, he said, she has dementia he shared. Its okay, I responded, I was happy to help.
I imagined the life they had shared, the love they had for each other. I wondered when she started needing help. I was grateful he was there for her.
