"Heeeeyyyyy mon, its a wonderful thing. Just listen to me. This ting" she said pointing her fingers at her chest. At first I wasn't sure what she was getting at other than why is she pointing her fingers at that part of her body.
I was at the nursing home and started chatting with one of the staff as the entertainment news was on. There was a picture of the guy from the bachelor show on.
"Do you know who that guy is?" I asked the nurse.
"Who? Him? What are you talking about mon?" The nurse is jamaican. That's why she speaks that way.
"Thats the guy from the bachelor show the other night. Did you hear what he did?"
"Oh yeah, I was just flippin through the channels and happened to catch it on the tube. He's the one who proposed to the two women. One day after another."
"Yeah, imagine that, the guy tells the one woman that it was the first time that he could tell her that he loved her. Then the next day change his mind go to the second woman whom he sent home and tell her she's the one he loves."
Just then another nurse jumped into the conversation.
"Lei! You watched that show? I can't believe that." she giggled.
The jamaican nurse jumped back in. "Well I'm glad that that man realized his true feelings. Love is a wonderful thing. When it happens you can feel it right here." Pointing to her chest again.
"I tell you Lei, god did a wonderful thing for us and let us feel this love. You know it when they are the one" the nurse kept telling to me.
"You know" I said to her. "I just found out there's a church for sale in my friends neighborhood. You should buy it. Then you can become a priest and spread the word as you are now."
