Madina Bashizadah有次在汉堡店和朋友吃饭，她看到了一位老人对着已逝妻子的照片吃饭，于是拍下了这感人的一幕，回去放在了网上，随后这张照片迅速在网络蹿红，被转载超过8000次。
Madina说她注意到老人坐在隔壁桌，一边吃着饭一边盯着放在他前面的照片。她马上就知道了，照片中的女子一定是他深爱的妻子。老人的行为让她很感动，她情不能自已感动得哭了起来而没有去接近老人。
她随后又说到："当我看到他时，我非常激动，而后哭了出来。我的好朋友想让我去和他交谈， 但是我没有去打断老人，我不想去打扰他。"然而，其他桌的客人注意到这位老人后，鼓起勇气去询问老人关于这张照片的事情。这位老人说，照片里的女人是他的妻子，五年前就去世了，他似乎非常开心兴奋得和我们分享他与妻子美丽而浪漫的爱情故事。
Madina得知老人遇到妻子的时候只有17岁，战争让他们分开了10年，但在那10年内，他从来没有停止过找她。她在推特上说："有次老人把女孩的事情告诉了他的理发师，后来才知道理发师的女儿就是这个女孩。"
"很快他们就结婚了，在一起生活了55年直到妻子去世，他去哪里都带着妻子的照片，他觉得这样妻子如同在他身边一样。" 这张被13000多个人标记收藏，Madina 想不到她随意的行为居然会有这么大的影响力。
她说："我不知道事情会像现在这样，我只是把东西放在推特上，与大家分享，这有点像公开日记。我看到如此美好的画面就是想把它拍下来，放在网上与大家分享这个美好瞬间。我不想让这件事情变味，但这事情让我也期待着自己也有这样的爱情。"
有趣的是在不久前另外一张同一个人老人对着妻子照片吃饭的照片在网上也流传开来。2个星期前，同一个老人，同样的地点，但是日期不同，老人的照片也被放上网，旁边这样注明：你可以去和老人交谈。尤其你是陌生人的时候，你很可能会被他们的故事感动，他们的事情也许会照亮你们的心。也许你们会非常惊讶，老人的故事会照亮你们的心，让你们对生活充满希望。
Madina说她也收到推特使用者认为她盗取别人照片的投诉。但是她已经澄清，这张照片确实是她拍的。因为大家可以在(第一张)照片的角落里看到她。她只是很高兴和大家分享这些感人的事情，可以打动这么多人的心，她表示也非常高兴。她只是想让大家知道，真爱的确存在。

This picture of an elderly man eating out with a photo of his late wife has melted the hearts of thousands after it went viral on the Internet. It was tweeted by Madina Bashizadah, who clicked the picture while having lunch with a friend at In-N-Out Burger in Fremont, California. Since she uploaded the pic on October 22, it has been retweeted over 8,000 times.
Madina said that she noticed the man seated at a nearby table, eating his meal while staring at a framed photograph in front of him. She immediately interpreted that the woman in the photo must be his deceased wife. This moved her so much that she burst into tears and couldn't bring herself to approach him.
"When I saw him, I got very emotional and started tearing up," she later said. "My best friend wanted me to talk to him but I couldn't without breaking down." Other diners at the restaurant, however, did pluck up the courage to speak to the old man and ask him about the photo. He confirmed that the woman was indeed his wife who had passed away five years ago, and he seemed excited to talk about her and share their beautiful love story .
Madina learned that the old man first met his wife when they were only 17 years old. The war kept them apart for 10 years after that, but he never stopped searching for her. "One day as he was telling his barber about her, the barber calls his daughter and it ends up being her," she shared on Twitter. "They were married instantly and it lasted 55 years until she passed away. He takes her photo everywhere."
The photo has been marked as a favorite by over 13,000 people, and Madina is quite overwhelmed with the response. "I didn't think anything like that would ever happen. I tweet everything, it's kinda like my public diary," she said. "So when I saw this, it was such a beautiful moment I was like 'aw, I'm gonna tweet this'. Not to be cheesy, but it made me want that kinda love."
Interestingly, another photo of the old man eating out with a photo of his wife has been circulating around the internet lately. Two weeks ago, a picture of the same man, in the same spot, but on a different day was posted on Imgur, with the caption: "Be sure to talk to the elderly. Especially strangers. You may think that you will brighten their day, but you may be surprised that they can actually brighten yours."
Madina said she's been receiving hate tweets from users who think she stole the photo from someone else. But she clarified that the picture was hers, because you can see the corner of her eye in the pic she posted. She's just glad that she was able to share the story that has managed to touch so many hearts. "Goes to show you true love does exist and I would love for everyone to know!"
