Is anyone faithful anymore?
My granny once told me that my papaw, who was 20+ yrs older than her, had cheated on her! She had told me how they had met, fallen in love & how he couldn't decide if she was the one or not... She wrote him this big letter telling him it was either her or those other girls he was a courtin'... He chose my granny, they married & had two kids! When I asked her about their life together, I also asked if my papaw (a man that I loved more than any other man alive) had cheated on her, & her response was, well he's a man, ain't he? I knew I had heard rumors of men going through the hills to other women's homes etc but my papaw! I guess he was more like any other man that I realized & not the sweet, old man that I had known! He was 96 when he passed! It was heartbreaking to know that the one man that I had trusted the most was also like all the men that I had known in my own life... Sad, that it really doesn't seem that no one knows the meaning of loving only the one you are with, doesn't it?
