Inspiring Quotes for Caregivers

July 9th, 2008

“All that really belongs to us is time; even he who has nothing else has that.”

                                                     — Balthasar Gracian

Time is the most precious gift we can give our aging parents.  Sure, it’s nice to give presents such as clothing, books, or their favorite things for special occasions, but when you come right down to it, time is the most precious resource we each possess and can always give to another human being.

Warmly,

Linda

    Hi Linda,

    THAT is powerful! Time is so much more valuable than anything we can buy. And for elders who have everything, all they want is our time. Such a cheap gift to give, but often not thought of.

    Thanks for sharing the quote.
