Seniors' Morning

Sunny and warm today.  After our morning routine we went down the 64 stairs and into the sunshine at 8 O'clock sharp.

It is our seniors' morning. Today, we are doing what all Israeli seniors do - we're going to the doctors. There is a great joke circulating here, that the seniors meet for daily chat at the doctors' office and when one does not show up, it is because he is sick. We walked to the office, we must be healthy.

From the doctor's office to the pharmacy, where unexpectedly we met a friend so the three of us stopped at  "Grieg" for coffee and freshly made carrot juice.  After a chat, we walked to the Russian Market where we all bought fish. The physician reminded us that we are getting up in age and we have to eat healthier. We continued our walk, stopped to pick some books at the library, climbed up the 64 stairs and arrived at home by noon sharp.

It took 4 hours of plenty of exercise, fresh air, and full- of- vitamin D sunshine

Nineteenth day 2014 - Thank you God for warm days and seniors' mornings, thank you for such great blessings

John 1:4, In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.

Earned my afternoon nap,

Orith, this post of yours is a sweet reflection on the beauty of life - even it's frail parts. At 50, I'm beginning to understand. Praise God for each amazing moment - leading into an even brighter eternity!
