| “Working with the elderly daily, I see the circle of life with them. They’ve been where we are, we’re at where they’ve been, we’ll be where they are. It’s a joy to always do the loving acts of kindness to such an incredible age of people. A simple smile to a woman in the passing, offering to help find that “special” item they may be looking for , but with age, can not see well anymore. Singing their favorite music from years gone by along with them. You can see the smile or sometimes tears as they remember “when” way back. There’s many acts of kindness a person can do each day, what we think may be making the other persons day, is also making our day much less selfish and so much better.” — teeter |
