Prior Thoughts Four.edevault

Sometimes I feel nervous about going to the retirement center. I don't understand why--nothing I cannot do is required of me. Perhaps its just the fear of messing up--of being unnatural, or boring. There is no reason for such fear...it could be my "downfall", a way that I will not enjoy serving others. I do enjoy it--I like to see their happy faces, wise and beautifully wrinkled. Some are harsh and grumpy, but most are kind and understanding. I need to take joy in serving others, because it brings others joy. Its fulfilling, but its also a struggle to maintain the right perspective.
