welcome everyone.
i'm glad you could make it.
i'll be discussing the elderly today.
 
senior citizens are super.
they have so much to offer.
yet,they're often overlooked and avoided.
 
that's why i'm here.
i want you to remember an important message.
please treat the elderly with love and respect.
 
all seniors deserve respect.
they deserve courtesy and kindness.
we should treat them like a national treasure.
 
they are role models to emulate.
they are unsung heroes to admire.
they are the pillars of our society.
 
they have weathered many storms.
they have survived many hardships.
thy have more wisdom and experience than anyone.
 
also we must spend time with seniors.
we should seek them out.
we should interact with them.
 
let's give them attention.
let's give them companionship.
that's what they crave the most.
 
make them feel special.
make them feel unique.
let tem know they're important to you.
 
engage them in a conversation.
escort them on a walk.
give them lots of mental and physical exercise.
 
it's important to stimulate seniors!
many are housebound and bored.
many yearn for excitement and laughs.
 
treat seniors with sensitivity.
just follow their cue.
just notice the way they treat you.
 
be active around seniors.
try to be lively and inspiring.
try to be intersting and exciting.
 
some like to be pampered with tlc.(tender loving care)
some like to banter,joke and tease.
ask questions and listen to make them happy.
 
be patient and considerate.
don't let their frail appearance fool you.
they're really young at heart.
 
finally,care about their needs.
care about their welfare.
realize someday you'll be in their shoes.
 
welcome seniors into your life.
without them you;ll miss something valuable.
they're a godsend and blessing.
 
visit your grandparents or elderly neighbors.
visit old soldiers or nursing homes.
you'll receive twice as much as you give!
