I spoke at Isabella Geriatric Center in New York City this weekend. I called the presentation “Gratitude. Trust. Dignity.” After my session, the residents surrounded me, asking me to return so every staff member, social workers and families could hear me. They asked, “Can you help us start book clubs and writing groups?”
They welcomed the homework I gave—to begin a daily Journal of Joy.
Coming next: a heart-warming observation in the elevator and more valuable lessons learned from the elders and the young.
