As we get closer to the rush and excitement that comes with the holidays, have you thought of performing acts of kindness that do not require shopping or baking? One of the most memorable acts is an unexpected visit to a caregiver or a caring family. The time spent with this family or person will be more treasured than the time spent in the malls shopping for a gift. I remember visits with seniors, loved ones and friends. When I was very young, the visits seemed boring. I sat there listening to the adults talk about their experiences. As I got older, I remember visiting some of those same adults because I wanted to or had it become a part of the family tradition? They shared some of those same stories from my childhood. Today, most of those seniors have made their transitions. I still think about the visits. It is a calming experience. Will you share your time this holiday season with a caregiver or a senior who will be overjoyed with your visit with or without tidings.
