SORTING THROUGH CONFUSION |
How many times have we said aloud, “Oh no, not again,” as we hear more troubling news from the radio, or television, or newspaper reporter? Brooding, we take a seat, perhaps momentarily losing our sense of purpose, as we add another log to our bonfire of worries. “Oh no, not again.” With so much uncertainty in the world, there is one thing we can say with 100% certainty: we all will leave this earth one way or another. Our certain demise is a fact of life.

THE 85 YEAR OLD ADVENTURE SEEKER |
At first glance, 85-year-old Myrt Rose is the epitome of class: sophisticated, educated, and glamorous. But a few minutes into a conversation with her, one quickly realizes this remarkable woman knows no fear and has lived her life with a wild sense of adventure.
“You can’t just sit home and be afraid,” Rose told Growing Bolder.

SHABBAT SHALOM
Rabbi Dovid S. Polter, Community Chaplain
Hardy Appetite & Beethoven
The music of Beethoven is a favorite to many. It penetrates the hearts of its listeners. It brings many to a state of exaltation. It wets the appetites of the classical music listeners as they traverse the turbulent challenges of life.
Often, two ideas that don’t seem related are associated with one another. Word etymology is no different. The Hebrew word for hardy appetite is b’tiavon. Btiavon and Beethoven are similarly sounding.
Music such as Beethoven draws forth our soulful appetites.

L’Chaim!
More than half of the residents who live in our JSL communities are considered low income or indigent. Your philanthropic support is essential to maintaining programs and services to help these older adults age with dignity and with a better quality of life. In addition, your gifts could significantly support the shortfall in the cost of pharmacy bills which are so vital to the residents’ wellness. We are so grateful for your generous gifts to Jewish Senior Life.
