I ran into this old man today in my living room and took this picture of him.

I came out of my bedroom, and he was sitting on my couch holding my TV remote.

He was bawling into it and saying “iPhone” over and over.

I asked him what he was doing, and he told me about how he met his wife in a concentration camp while giving his shoes to an orphan. They fell in love and wrote love notes to each other on tin cans. Then they ecscaped one night when he distracted the guards by throwing the tin cans he had saved from her at Hitler.

They got married in a field ten minutes later.

Ten minutes after that, she died in his arms for absolutely no reason.

And today would have been their anniversary.

So every year on this day, he tries to call her in heaven using anything that looks like it uses electricity.

So touching.

This is the man I want to become.
