One Final Thought; Looking Down At A Fairy Tale
While
touring the ancient town of Dolceaqua, Italy, we happened upon a wedding ceremony
in progress at the antiquated church in the middle of the cobblestoned town
square. An ornate carriage and a proud family waited for the bride and groom
to emerge from the church. The air was festive, with flower petals covering
the cobblestones and the family members milling about.
When the bride and groom emerged to the cheers of the crowd, I happened to look
up at a window overlooking the church. I knew immediately that the real picture
was the expression of awe and delight on the little girl's face looking
down at the fairy-tale scene below.
