The joy of holding her hand is unparalleled.
For me, there’s nothing more joyful than holding Marilyn’s hand.
I never grow tired of her.
This feeling started back in middle school.
People used to tease us for holding hands and walking to the Roosevelt High School cafeteria during lunch.
Even after 70 years, we still do it.
As I write this, I’m holding back tears.

Typically, the act of holding hands signifies the beginning of a relationship.
The initial excitement of holding hands for the first time evolves into a lifelong bond, and even after 70 years, if the joy remains, it’s truly admirable.
Holding hands is akin to holding onto love.
It reaffirms that the love has remained unchanged.*

Joy, Love, Bond
