When they leave the job for his age and with much regret, my first thought was for the post ..... Inactive
than they have ever been, and volunteering has always been my
alternative my goal.
already working occasionally also was doing something with my Association of Blood Donors Mangiagalli.
Of course, after retirement, the time is increased and then, another of my ball, I turned Ital.Ciechi Union. For several years I was involved in accompanying and support for people "blind". Activities very rewarding, in contact with people very different from each other, which greatly enriched me and I was also very useful in future reports.
Then the years pass, the needs of "blind" and are quite physically challenging, even if reluctantly, I had to dedicate myself to more sedentary forms of volunteering.
And here began my career at Seneca, concerned with people getting older and maybe not so much healthier than they need company, to fill their loneliness, or just someone to talk to and vent bitterness, fears and regrets. I have followed different area Romana - mine - and one in particular, Rosetta, former tram driver in time of war, to whom I am also very fond of her. For this reason, and because in the meantime was no longer alone but in a nursing home, I separated from her. In February, will make one hundred years and come back to visit! At the same time
SENECA I've a training course of the Opera VI of S. Faithful Assistants Volunteers in prison. It was my other ball, and so for six years once a week meeting detainees S. Victor.
blind, single people and elderly, prisoners, people in short to which I hope to be helpful, here's how I try to give meaning to my life. Sometimes I think it is a form of selfishness because in fact you get much more than what you give.
I am waiting for an activity always SENECA at the Maugeri Foundation.
This is for me the true way to live with peace of mind, day by day, my thoughts turned to tomorrow and thanks for what we have undeservedly received and duly we must share it to those less fortunate.
