Community That Grows

--by DANCE, posted Oct 26, 2025

A kind neighbour who helped me last week introduced me to another neighbour who had a stroke last year and has lost her eyesight almost completely. We went out for a coffee together and they told me that they often meet so my other neighbour helps her with her chores and a short walk every other week. As I leave on around the corner, I offered to pick her up some time to walk with her as well. She was delighted so I'm hoping to do that tomorrow if the weather allows. It must be so difficult for her, I imagine her life changing completely in her 60s and being on her own can't be easy. I often feel myself a little lonely, being so far away from family, so I understand. Hopefully we help each other by being there for one another, a community that grows...and kindness that shows in many ways...
