My wife has a bad cold. Is in bed. Yesterday I peeled an orange for her. In the course of the day she mentioned to me, three times, how moved she was by that gesture.

Was that the extent of your help? Don't you treat your wife right?
No, I did more than just peel an orange. The thing about the orange is this: my wife knows that I don't care so much for oranges because I don't like to peel them. So whenever I did eat one she would always peel it for me.
In a way it was a very deep gesture speaking the silence of the heart. When I do similiar there's always (1)something on the mind,(2)something on the mind, (3)something on the mind. BMc
