The passing of my
aunt has been sensitizing to me. Her passing reminds me to call the senior members of my
family and community periodically. You know what I mean, they don't email , text, or tweet. They communicate the old-fashioned
way by telephone. I called two senior persons today. One was a member of my family,
and the other was a member of my church. They didn't want to talk long. They
just wanted to know that I was thinking about them. Their joy became my joy. I
have promised myself to take the time to call senior members of my family and
community with regularity. It's my opportunity to learn and talk with people
who have a rare commodity in our day and time - wisdom.
