the story of danny & annie

Posted: August 27th, 2010 | Author: | Filed under: love | Tags: | 2 Comments »

I was completely moved by this visual love story of Danny and Annie, two elderly Brooklynites completely & totally in love.  Their interviews about their 27 year romance were publicly broadcast the same day Danny died of terminal cancer.  Incredibly sad, but at the same time, profoundly inspiring to anyone who has a special someone in their life.  For me, it makes me want to be a better wife, a better sister, a better friend, a better daughter.  It makes me want to cherish the little things more, to create our own unique little everyday rituals and traditions, and to never forget to be eternally grateful that I found someone who makes me feel so loved every single day.

And I’m just saying now – you’ll probably cry watching this.  So grab some tissues!

P.S. Thanks to Mikela for throwing this my way.

    Initially, I didn’t want to watch this (my dad has terminal cancer and is in hospice at the moment), but I’m SO glad I did. My hubby and I watched it together. It WAS incredible! Very inspiring. Sad, but oh. so. sweet!
