Am I late to the party? Does everyone else already know this darling couple from Lancaster County, Ben and Rose? They are entrancing. The evident love between them, and the honesty and simplicity of how they are — oh, I just love them!
I find them absolutely arresting. Wanting to pursue their music and (I suppose) their online presence, they have come out of the Old Order Amish context where they grew up, but their demeanour and relationship shows me something I have never seen — masculinity and femininity not acculturated to our normal Western culture in which the women are like Barbie and the men are like Shrek. There is a strength and confidence in that young woman, and a gentleness and shyness in her man, that give me hope for humanity
❤️ 😊
