GOOD NEWS! The New Life Of Senior Assisted Living San Francisco, CA Discovers GOOD NEWS!

November 15, 2008

Being fet up with all the bad news reported in the news lately, I decided to go on the web today and type “Good News” into google and lo and behold I found a whole bunch of it. I started ‘The New Life’ out today by saying, “I have some good news for you today!” I could feel their emmediate inner glow of excitement. I sat down and started reading a headline, “Volunteer Greeters Offer Hugs, Applause For Troops”. Basically there is a group out there that goes to Bangor International Airforce Base every time a plane of troops come home from their tours of duty in Iraq, to give applause and handshakes. How beautiful we all reacted. This set the tone for a marvelous dicussion about giving yourself over to a cause greater than one’s self. Residents shared their stories about what they have passionately given time and money towards. Resident, Jenny Murphy shared how she started the Pleasant Hill Senior Community Center many years ago and how over the years of enthusiastically giving to her vision, today it has become a thriving center where seniors go to have fun, while engaging with like-minded people.

The New Life always ends singing, “Oh what a beautiful morning….”
