expressions speak louder than a thousand words

..yesterday Joanne got married. at the reception law and i volunteered to be the donkey slaves who collected and arranged the presents,and as such got a clear view of the guests.while we were up there a man came on stage to wish the couple.he was bald and wore glasses i think...he didn't say a word. he just looked at Prashanth with the most indescribable expression on his face.as if it was a mixture of love and loss and happiness and pride ...more perhaps, as if he knew just that little bit more about life.he shook his hand handed him something and moved on.it's difficult for me to describe the feeling

the man is prashanths uncle.he is bald because of chemotherapy. i have seen few displays of emotion so poignantly potrayed.my eyes well up on recollection..
