Every day and every morning was the same. The old man used to get up at 6 AM and had his morning coffee with a newspaper. Despite of having computer and smart phone that his children bought for him he was not able to get used to that. He always wondered how people can read news on a small screen but also it was annoying that while reading there was many different advertisement was appearing on and on. That is why he just used it only for calling his friends and family.
The morning was not a morning if he was not able to smell the ink on printed newspaper that brought the memories of the time when he was young and as a boy was a newspaper boy. He loved his task because he was able to be outside and visited other people who were waiting for him and often he got a bit of pocket money if he was polite and chatty.
That was the why how he met his future wife and they lived happy 60 years. But it is already 5 years since he is alone and no matter what he does every time he is catching himself thinking about his love.
After breakfast he was going in fresh air and his favourite place was at the lake in park. It was their bank where he and his wife were sitting and dreaming about their retirement and built the plans for future.
This is only place where he felt comfort and people who were passing by could see a smiling old man. Everyone thought that he is happy man but in reality his happiness was only when he was with his wife in his thoughts. That was his driving force and that is what he needed for his children and grandchildren because he could recognise the spirit of his wife, her voice, her smile and her character in their children. Everything comes back, everything exists in a circle of life.

Thanks for your participation. Best of luck for the contest.
I like your post very much in which you have praised an old man and an old man was very happy when he was with his wife and children and when his wife etc left him i.e. passed away. If he goes then he remembers every time and he goes to remember every time where he used to spend time with her.
