その昔、love actuallyという映画があり、ナレーションがすごく印象深いものでした（以下引用）。
"Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often, it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know, none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaking suspicion... love actually is all around. "
ヒースローでの友人や家族や恋人との再会を喜ぶ人々を背景に
このナレーションが流れるのですが
すごく素敵と思いながらも
遠い遠い世界のことのような気がしたものでした。
なので、
まさか
自分自身が
ヒースローへ夫を迎えに行く日がくるなんて
夢にも思いませんでした。
