"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."
This Quote from "Love Actually" brings a tear to my eye every time I watch the movie, because it's so true. I love airports for this reason... (well that and the fact I feel like I'm going travelling again and that is an equally happy feeling)
On Tuesday I'm picking up one of my best friends from the Airport. A beautiful guy who I just adore and have missed so much over the last 3 months. I cannot wait to see him getting off the plane and to smother him with a hug that would put bear hugs to shame. It's such a happy time and everyone around you feels the same. Can't wait!!!
