As is customary after Sunday Mass, I visit an elderly person. And even though my visit last Sunday was brief, what I saw serves as a reminder of what we may easily overlook.
The holidays bring joy, laughter, and a schedule packed with events for many of us. It's hard to fathom how some individuals may be depressed during this joyous season, which some refer to as "the most amazing." Still, it does. The holidays, for instance, can rekindle painful memories for someone who lost a loved one during the season. Sometimes, the holidays in general, rather than a specific event, conjure up unwanted associations.
During the holidays, depression symptoms are frequently experienced by certain seniors. Because of the passing of time and the numerous loved ones that older people have lost, including parents, siblings, and friends who have passed away, the season can be trying.
The lady I visited took great delight in customs from years past that are no longer possible. It can be challenging to accept that younger generations are creating new traditions. Children and grandkids frequently move away, and families frequently split up as a result of divorce.
She could use some help, in my opinion, if she is to escape the Christmas blues and feel more like herself.
Everyone benefits greatly from the sun and fresh air, which also aid in our vitamin D absorption. It's chilly now-a-days; maybe we can just wrap up and go for a stroll, or sit outside in the sunshine and read or talk. Perhaps she can feel great after getting a new haircut, pedicure, or manicure. She might like the pedicures because they also massage her lower legs.
What should I do?
I post an article daily, and I hope to see you again soon!

It definitely gets harder as traditions change, the world is a very different place today than what it once was. Great to see you helping a friend and giving them connection
It's my way of giving back, I will share with you that my Mom and Dad passed away one after another. I was relatively young, at 23. I never had the opportunity to show them how much I cared for them. So I do this every Sunday when possible, @melbourneswest .

Oh wow. I am so sorry for your loss and I don't know how hard that must have been. I am glad you're doing well.
Yes, thanks to my sorority sisters. They were always with me during the first five years I was on my own, until they had their own families.
Have a pleasant evening!

Live life and say I love you as you come with more kindness, more love, and more gratitude, even when there are sunny days but in your heart, there is a little bit of longing for excess of the past...
It is wonderful to share the joy of living in the most unusual details. Beautiful and inspiring post @silversaver888
It is very rewarding. They do more for me than I do for them @janitzearratia !

Thanks, @ladytoken
It is natural that the elderly keep in their souls their wisdom, their dreams, and longings for the good, and the fulfilled in their lives, and they share it with us who visit them on weekends. Just let them tell their stories, and it is comforting for everyone @silversaver888
The wisdom of the elderly is a treasure that young people often do not know how to take advantage of. No matter how smart one thinks one is, nothing can replace the experience lived.
You are right! I hear what you're saying. That is why I'm all ears when it comes to them talking about their lives.

Yes, it can be a hard season for some, especially when they remain alone.
Even though it is getting chilly outside. Maybe a stroll would be nice for her, take her for a nice coffee and cake somewhere pretty. 😊
You’re a sweetheart 🌺

Do it all! Take her for a pedicure and have one at the same time! You both will benefit! Take her out for a sunny stroll in the park! Take her out for coffee or tea! Or, just simply 'be' with her before Christmas. I think the holiday blues can hit us all from time to time. Ever hear of being lonesome in a crowd? For those of us not dependent on others for care and whatnot, perhaps the solution to our own blues is to go and share this time with others not as mobile.
You are so sweet to do what you do, sis! I am sure your friend appreciates you! Love ya much!🤗😘🌸💞🎄 !LADY
