I work for a health dept. that goes into seniors homes and help in any way they need. So often we forget that these wonderful people had so much vigor to them. I love to listen to their stories. They just love to tell you about when they were young. Someday we will all be there.

Lord how true! As a nurse I try to do that each day-I try to remember that these old people were young once- I try to forget that soon I will be there-60 moving toward 70- although in my heart and soul I am still 20 moving to 30.

That is incredible. My DH works at a nursing home. I'll print this off to show to the other nurses.
