So thoughtful and kind hearted
APRIL 28, 2025 | JOY

Consider spending time at a senior home to bring a thoughtful surprise to the residents. This gesture doesn't need to involve money; many seniors often feel isolated due to family living far away or having no relatives at all. Simply visiting them a few times a month to share a meal, read a book, or engage in conversation can make a significant difference. Our elders possess rich histories and fascinating stories that offer invaluable insights into life, far beyond what any history book can provide.

I read a Christmas poem to our local home and took my dog to visit for cuddles

I often walk my dogs to the nursing home and senior apartments in my neighborhood and let the seniors visit with my dogs and tell me stories about the pets they have had. My dogs love it and the seniors do too!
