I was on the bus tonight making my way home. It was half empty, except for two American couples sitting in front of me. I was drifting in between thoughts, and rarely tuned in to what they were saying. Usually, I enjoy listening to conversations on the bus/tube, especially ones of American tourists because let's face it, they are quite hilarious.
As I glanced at the woman sitting next to her husband/partner, I caught her lips making out the words "I love you" towards her man. I don't know why and how I caught that moment, but I did... And I'm glad. I looked at the man waiting for him to say those words back, but he didn't. My eyes were fixated on him, still waiting to hear it back. Instead, he turned his head, grabbed hold of her hand, and planted a kiss on her lips. I smiled. To me, that translated into: "I love you too."
Although hearing it is important to some extent, actions speak louder than words.
Just a small moment I wanted to share with the world. :)

that's sweet... but i wonder, why do you think americans are so hilarious? are we just strange birds or what? ;)
re: your comment on my blog, i didn't take you the wrong way.
i think there are a lot of americans that are loud and obnoxious... but we aren't all that way. i think a lot of brits are a lot more crazy than us, especially when they've been drinking... but then again... some americans in this part are very loud after having a few, but i think many of them are in the navy and such.
anyway... yes, we do seem too trusting, but all in all, i think we're a pretty nice group of ppl! :)
so this is where you are! :) :)
this is sweet.
i love seeing happy couples
