Dealing With The Losses Of Old Age Turning Them AroundWritten by Judi Singleton
Continued from page 1
The loss of driving being able to transport oneself: I thought about this one too. I am now able to walk where I go. This walking gives me time to enjoy all things I missed when I was driving. I am also healthier for walking. I meet neighbors, enjoy watching children play, hear birds singing. Watch a cat be lazy on a sunny porch. What a blessing this not driving is. The losses through health care issues, examples a lessening of ones vision and hearing. We live in an age where they have laser surgery for our eyes. Glasses that correct vision, hearing aides of all kinds. Whatever our physical challenges are it gives us opportunity to turn to Higher Power with them. If I can relax into my natural state of being I am always abundantly healthy. Now that I have time I can learn that lesson. The loss of old friends and loved ones: If you turn that one around you can sit and be lonley for those you lose or you can stretch yourself and reach out to new friends. This is hard many times but we are on this earth to learn. If we believe we can we can. We can make new friends and perhaps give something to needs of world. There is no lack of people who need support and love, or causes that need support. Reach out and give your love. It will come back to you ten times ten. It is a choice as you see.
