Two rows of 300 year old live oak trees line a carefully maintained brick path. The brilliant green leaves match the manicured grass below, creating a breath taking scene with a nearly 200 year old, gorgeous southern plantation at the end. You can feel the history, it's in the air.
A couple goes for a stroll among them, hand in hand, just taking it in. The man turns, he grabs his partner, looks her in the eye and slowly lowers himself down on one knee, presenting a ring from inside his jacket. She gasps, hands covering her mouth in excitement, she is overjoyed, to the point of tears. It is in that moment that their lives are added to the history of that majestic place.
That is what we live for. Those little moments of life where time stops and love fills the air.
