Dear Captain,
Do you like folk songs?
Today is my first day to work in Golden Age gerocomium. There are 11 grannys and 13 grandpas. There are just 10 staff, including me. Grandpa Chen and Granny Lu are a couple, and the others either forever lost their partners or divorced or were separated by their kids. Like grand Wu, his wife is taken care by his younger son while he is sent here by his daughter.
Today when I was helping Granny Deng wash her hair, she told me her husband was a nerdy geologist. But he learnt quite a few folk songs from the local people where he had been to. In those days, seldom people went to school, let alone girls. She got to know him at a session when she came back from a college in Scotland. I wondered how they became a couple and asked Granny Deng. She continued her story, "I was attracted by a folk song sung by him once I had a chance to visit a village where he happened to do a research then. It was a Scottish folk song. He sang in Chinese though." She likes to sing that song and after her husband passed away she sings it more often. I guess when she misses him, she must feel like singing that song.
Does love comes so simply? A folk song conntected them. Amazing, isnt it?
Yours
Nikita

Yea! Better! Thanks so much, dear OM Exp! giggling, it is so nice of you for correcting me!
Little bro, I like that sentence. hehehe
[do you need me to recommend you to Nikita?]
;-)
Better, isn't it?
Yes I am unwed yet. :D . Nikita girlfriend character is really nice I just told you. ;)) .
This letter base on grandpa and grandma and this particular blog reminded me a few phrases about grandpa and grandma. "The most romantic love story isn't Romeo and Juliet died together but grandpa and grandma who grew old together". :))
Hmmm, past tense? How about now, my OM Exp?
hehehe. ;-)
Hehehe. I wonder your story! Tell me! Tell me! Tell me more~ gigglng!
Sis sewar, you've depicted so amazing love. Is that feeling as good as when you are hungry you get food?
;-)
Hint: You should have used the past tense in the sentence. Try again and make the sentence sound better.
Yes Sweety. Love can make more than that, I can tell. When you fall in love you will realize that love creates fragrance in the air, ardor from coldness, it beautifies everything around it. Sweety, falling in love doesn't need a strong reason, sometimes it happens without any reasonable reason. Do you know what did connect me with my husband????? The gray hair. Yes.......Yes.......Don't wonder!!!! I still have adored the gray hair in his head!!!! God bless you my little princess.
Oh, yeah, you are rght...To keep each other acompany forever is really not easy, especially for now...
Thanks for your correction ;-) How about now? hehehe
It can be so easy for people to fall in love - a nice smile, a flower, a song, a word, etc. But, it's never so easy for them to love each other forever.
By the way, you may need to reword this sentence: "...and the others either forever lose their partner or divorce or be separated by their kids."
