More anticipation

Children eagerly await Christmas is tomorrow, and they look forward to new experiences and milestones. As seniors, we can learn from this sense of anticipation and apply it to our own lives. Instead of focusing solely on the past or dwelling on what’s been lost, we can look to the future with hope and excitement. […]

Anticipation

This time of year is brimming with anticipation, seen most vividly through a child’s eyes. It’s the kind of excitement that makes their whole being buzz—the anticipation of Christmas Day, with presents under the tree calling out to be unwrapped. The waiting is almost unbearable, no matter what age you are. As adults, and especially […]

Home is where the heart is.

 For many of us, a home is more than just a building; it’s a living scrapbook of our lives. It’s where we’ve shared laughter, faced challenges, celebrated milestones, and found peace in moments of solitude. As we take a moment to pause and reflect moving closer to Christmas day,  I’d like to ask you to […]

In times of trial, we summon our might, Seeking the spark in the depths of the night.Memories rise like a soft, glowing flame,Whispering strength as they call out our name. Each resource, each image, forgotten but near,Leaps to our side, casting shadows of fear.This is the luck born of time well-prepared,A fullness of self from […]

The future is not set in stone

 This is a time when forgiveness, love, and hope shine brightest, even amidst the challenges and uncertainties that life may bring. For many, it is a season filled with high expectations for the future, and while it can be joyful, it can also feel heavy for those who see only darkness ahead. Yet, this season […]

Kindness Eases Change

 I’ve seen how much power kindness holds, especially during times of change. Retirement often brings new beginnings, but it can also come with significant transitions—shifting routines, changing roles, or even redefining relationships. It’s during these times that kindness becomes an anchor, offering stability and warmth not only to us but also to those we love. […]
