What do little kids and elderlies have in common?
I am not sad. It just feels like I have my heart bare-open with issues and possibilities that can make my life's existence more meaningful. Don't get me wrong as I have my immediate family that includes my parents who are generally good health, brother, husband, and our son.
There are still a lot of things that I want to try and do. Some fleeting, some deeply rooted. I am most happy with working with people in need especially those starting and living almost at the end of their lives. I am usually drawn to these age groups.
On the other hand, I also enjoy writing. I would like to write about children and old people. I am daydreaming of writing books about growing up in a multicultural society, about caring for the elderlies, about bringing different views on the table that people can find the courage to talk about it and at the same time improve the lives of those in vulnerable situations. Some works might be heavy but I would like it to be light but thought-provoking.
I may try to browse big books for the elderlies. How are they different from regular adult books? What topics do these books cover? If I were to put myself in a senior person's shoes, what would I find interesting? What would help me ease the inconveniences of living with old age?
