Meaning behind the art: Visiting a neighborhood elder today in the Nursing home was not the easiest thing. The place was hopping with people all over, staff running in and out and it was lunch time so the meal room was packed with a restaurant appeal. Everyone grouped together at their tables in sporty wheel chairs. I wasn’t sure if this elder would recognize me, but she did and her face light up. Her confused thinking has passed and her memory was back, grateful to see that. We had a nice chat and she ate some lunch which was good for her. She worries and worries for her loved ones, finances and misses her Sister that just recently passed. I left with a peaceful feeling that this is her “winter time” soon she will be at peace were all her worries will be long gone. We shared stories of sledding and ice skating something we both longed for when we were kids, looking forward to the next snow day.
