When I was young I was seeing a young lady who was from a big family, instead of lighting a cigarette after enjoying our afternoon of pure delight and said I'm Roman Catholic. To connect the rest of the story together here goes. The girl was a much younger Sophia Loren look alike from a big family and I lived on the main street. She would park her car on a dead end side street behind my street, the house behind mine was on that dead end and had a path down to the lower main rt 60. We would see an older couple who lived in thr house above and behind mine. So at a young age both of us looked and admired that couple well into and above 70 years keeping each other going and alive. I got cleaned up real well on a Sunday and went to my then loves church, and ended up sitting next to that couple who recognized us with a warm smile. I can't help thinking how alive that older was on that day in church and how dead in the heart you are.
