Dear Heavenly Father, please help me to never cross the line

Disney Speakers
Walt Elias Disney was not a model of physical health.

 

Until we walk a mile in another person’s shoes, we have no idea what they are going through.

Each night as i floss my teeth, i am reminded that we are a product of our priorities.

Dear Heavenly Father, please help me to never cross the line in using my observations of others to help me shape my priorities.

There are things like disease and accidents that no matter what you do, you may have to fight battles you never imagined.

Not going to “sugar-coat” this. Flossing teeth is tedious, time consuming, and boring.

And so it goes.

What do people in their 90’s want to tell us about life?

She’ll be 93 in five weeks.

 

What do people in their 90’s want to tell us about life?

Should we wait to be told and risk that it might never happen, or do we need to pull it out of them?

God bless our elders

Would elders insist we keep up with technology?
Yesterday at Lehigh Valley Mall.

 

God bless our elders.

If we are lucky, we will follow in their path.

And if we are smart, we will ask for their advice in how to age well.

Would i think differently?

Seniors in electric scooters at Disney
Yesterday after lunch at Epcot’s Land Pavilion.

 

While walking out of The Land Pavilion, prayed for the two people driving electric scooters at Epcot yesterday.

Questions flooding my brain:

  • Did they have an accident?
  • Is it disease related?
  • Was it preventable?
  • How have their lives changed from what they envisioned as young adults?

If it were possible to not think this way, i wonder what i would think (and pray) about.

A prison without bars

Charles Schultz quote

 

(photo: From TV in Senior Living apartment while watching yesterday’s Rose Bowl game.)

Have you ever lived in a Senior Living Facility or a Nursing home?

Not an extended day-long or all-night visit.

But have you slept there for a week at a time? Multiple times?

Is it the best thing to ever happen to these seniors?

Or is it a prison without bars?

Where does hope reside?
