Seniors Offer Advice to Next Generations

I think books like this one are worth your review, as they address how elders can build meaningful community with little or no additional support. Titled "The Elder Wisdom Circle Guide for a Meaningful Life: Seniors Across America Offer Advice to the Next Generations" by Doug Meckelson Diane Haithman, it presents real life stories about the growth of a nationwide elderly wisdom group, which provides services to younger people. 

Efforts like this put meaning into everyone's lives, not just seniors. But especially so for our older folks, who are to often pushed into homes because they are too difficult to deal with. This in turn destroys their aging physical, mental, and emotional strengths even more. What if we found more ways to engage our Seniors? Maybe the burdens that come with aging would be so bad for them or us? ... You may be inspired by this guide. The authors website is elderwisdomcircle.org
