Blessed Beyond Measure
The definition of satisfaction is why I volunteer. On Thursdays, I am always happy to see my students. The thought of being able to teach the older adults about technology every time I go makes me feel blessed. Blessed because I have the knowledge to share. Blessed because my students do not give up. Blessed because my students teach me to stay focused and always strive above and beyond. “No matter how young or old you are always try to learn.” Those are the words of one of my students to me. I smile daily with satisfaction because of this opportunity given to me by Digital Grandparents. I am grateful for this opportunity and I will continue to be inspired by my students at Beechwood here in Troy, New York.
