I too am going to read Ever Upward, and I loved the series of BBC programmes (three I think in total) about no kidding couples/women, featuring Lesley.<br /><br />The "elderly orphans" article is an interesting concept. I liked that they suggested having support networks and having reached out to services in the community at an earlier stage. I think that if there's one thing I've learnt over the last few years - and especially looking at my aging mother - is that I want to make sure we have that all in hand before we need it.<br /><br />That last article is interesting. I tend to agree with many of the commenters. That it is important to try, even if we fail. Some people will success at learning empathy, others don't even know where to start. But we need to start - because surely that enables us to figure out exactly what is fair and just and moral. If we don't understand another's problems, then how can we determine what is objective, fair and moral? Thanks for directing me to this.Malihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03928262526502319303noreply@blogger.com
