    Hi Linda,

    The quote is so true. Often when we’re dealing with our Golden Oldies we have to protect them from some of what is actually happening. They can be very fragile.

    Hi SpaceAgeSage,

    I agree with your assessment about Peale.

    Hi Barbara Swafford,

    I like your take on this quote. I was thinking of it more from a caregivers’ perspective, and you read it coming from our Golden Oldies’ point of view! Works both ways, doesn’t it? Very cool.

    It may sound hard to do but a positive mental attitude can sure save the day! Thanks for sharing the quote!
