Do you sometimes think that the SilverHairsClub is all about fun? And that most of our activities center around eating, eating, dancing, keeping fit, travel and enjoying the world. And that all these activities are part of getting old.
Then, there are times when among us, members pass away; some quietly, and some, we rather not know about it. Then, there are others who suddenly suffer a stroke, diagnosed for cancer, or met with an accident; all of which affect painfully our fellow members and their families. For these unfortunate members, if they have many close fellow members as friends, they get to receive moral support and help. For the quieter ones, we forget about them over time.
Sometimes, not knowing any bad news is better. We already have a lot of our own personal problems. Many of us are short of time, dont have all the money in the world and too many things to worry about.
What do you think? Perhaps we can do something small. Just thinking aloud, share some of your thoughts.
