I spent about maybe 25 hours in the last few days meeting and helping some of these elderly people and I wanted to know what they really needed and wanted. I suddenly realized what they are looking for and needing from us younger people... they want respect. They want to be treated as if they belong to in our society not as if they were second class citizens. We have to Acknowledge them make sure they do exist. Help them open the door for them and be polite. I talked about a few of the people i help but I help spoke and met many of the people who lived in the fairways community. I am not going to stop my blog. It is actually going to continue after this class is over.
