To give is to live
About a year and a half ago I was absolutely tired from life after three excruciating years of taking care of my husband affected by Alzheimer’s, along with a life time of taking care of my son with Down’s Syndrome. It was around this time I chanced upon the Facebook page of the Northwest Indiana Down’s syndrome Association that also worked with other children in my son’s school. I decided to visit the Association’s office once and that day was a life changer. The work being done there was beyond amazing. Every day volunteers would show up, smiling more than the day before, more motivated, and zealous than ever. I decided then to give the remaining of my time and efforts there, and I did, and never looked back. The organization lived by the rule of giving. After just a month of dedicating my time there I felt more relieved and happier in general realizing that giving is what we live for. The more we give, the more it makes us more peaceful inside. And that is why I give. To the DSA of NWI, and to my family. After all to give is to live.
