Quite frankly, if I never hear another thing about a particular Hollywood socialite's failed marriage, it will be too soon.

In light of that, the elderly couple sitting near me at the library was a poignant reminder of what love really looks like. The wife appeared to have had a stroke (based on her speech and movements) and the endless patience her husband possessed was incredibly moving. And since they'll never make the cover of a national magazine anytime soon, here's their 15 minutes.

    This actually made me tear up! Thanks Abygail, and I'm happy they had their 15 minutes because of you! I've been with my fiancé for 8 years - and I'm only 24 years old. I know what is true love, and that's why I don't listen to the news, or look up fake magazines!!
