It is also a way of life, to be kind and courageous. Let’s imagine an older woman who wakes up each day with a smile. Perhaps she is feeling a bit of pain in her body. Perhaps she longs for those who have gone. Nevertheless, she makes tea, waters her plants, says a prayer, and begins her day. She doesn’t gripe very much.
She’s come to know that life has its days of happiness and days of sadness. She has a peaceful lifestyle and is an example of being grateful for the little things.
