Occassionally I will write a blog that is inspirational in nature rather than about the real estate business. I know people like to get to know their real estate agents in a personal way, to know what is important to the person that is helping them with their important decisions in buying and selling properties. So I want to share with you some observations I made today.
I had the privelege of singing with my brother at a church service in a nursing home. There were only 18 people there. A very small group with great enthusiasm. Most of the attendees were dressed in very casual clothes, some even wore their pajamas. One tall, thin lady actually had on a nice dress, stockings and dress shoes. I watched this lady yesterday and today as she helped others that could not walk as well as she. I watched her put out the big white cotton bibs for dinner on each table. She knows where each resident eats. She makes them welcome as they enter the dining room just like she helped seat them in a circle today for church.
She is quite a helper, this lady. I don't remember her name but I will never forget her beautiful face. She has the love of God in her heart and never stopped helping or thanking others the whole time I was there. She has a servants' heart. How blessed we are when we are priveleged to meet such people.
She is in a place where she should be attended to but instead of thinking of herself, she spends her time thinking of others. She seems so happy and full of joy. I am sure the other residents love her and appreciate her. The nurses and aides do as well.
What do you have to give back? Maybe you think it is not much. To someone, it could mean everything. This lady gives all she can and it is indeed A LOT.
JOY PEACE LOVE CARING SHARING HOPE FAITH Are these just words? Or are these life itself? Go visit a nursing home and find out how much you are worth.
