“I know he loves me,” she says. “Because every time I head off to work, I feel him watching me leave.”
We learn that she’s quickly going blind—losing her eye-sight. And what started as a beautiful illustration of joy and romance turns into the trials that blindness has lead them to.
In a world where 50 percent of marriages wind up in divorce, it’s only natural to think that’s where this will lead.
But the husband’s response is just the opposite. As the narration turns to him, he shares his fears and his deep love for his wife—even through her stubbornness and loss.
“My heart stops every time I think about her crossing the streets of downtown.”
We follow the newly-blind wife through her day only to learn the incredible ways her husband has humbly committed himself to her without her knowing—even when she thinks he deserves better, and has no idea the selflessness he serves her with.
“Because that’s what true love is right?” he says. “It’s more than just a feeling, it’s an action.”
