Love is an exquisite and vital emotion that ignites new enthusiasm in life, fostering a sense of interconnectedness with others. Love transcends age is exemplified in a heartwarming viral video where a 78-year-old man proposed to his school crush at the airport.

I love you more than words can express and more than you can ever comprehend I wanted to spend the rest of my life proving that to you and making you the happiest woman in the world. Will you Nancy gives me the honor of being my soulmate in life my partner in every sense of the world that I can love in life forever? Marry me?” Nancy happily said “Yes” in response.
