I was talking to a
Swedish gentleman the other day and he mentioned, "America has forgotten
about the old people. There is so much to be learned from our elders. That is a
big mistake." He is right!
So, start learning and
spend time with these wise ones. Also, what can you offer them in return?
Grant a Wish to a Senior
Citizen. Volunteers for the Twilight
Wish Foundation grant wishes by donating items (like a home
computer requested by a grandmother who wanted to e-mail her grandkids) or by
contributing their time. Learn all about it at www.twilightwish.org Some
wishes—like one from a retired postman who wanted to go over his old route one
last time—require planning instead of money, and volunteers tend to choose
items or actions that most speak to them.
