Will we still play when we're seventy?

I live opposite a playground, so there's normally quite an array of kids and parents out there this time of day, teenagers too in the evenings. And also, sometimes...

Right now there's an elderly couple out there. They have to be seventy at the youngest. No kids or grandkids with them, just themselves. And they're playing on the seesaw. It's about the cutest thing I've ever seen.

That's what I want from a relationship - someone who will still play on the seesaw with me in a playground when we're old and gray and creaking and don't give a shit.
