Ms. Pearl is a resident at the Silver Lining Nursing Home. She is another sweet person that I take time to talk with almost every day. She has family that comes and visits, but I do not see them there very often.
Ms. Pearl has sad eyes, as do a lot of the residents in the nursing home. She sits in her wheel chair and stares out the window. I wonder what she is thinking...I wonder if she thinks, 'how did I end up here amongst all of these strangers?' I wonder while she is staring out of the window if she thinks, 'I wish I was outside instead of in here'.
There is a sun room at the nursing home and I find it interesting that you can almost always find someone sitting in there starting out of the window. I guess it really is their window to the world.
I think God is teaching me to appreciate life more by seeing the lives of these wonderful people through their eyes. What do you think?
