It strikes me as I read through your thinking that planning is both a gift to the planner and a gift to the ones who may put the plan into place. No guessing. <br /><br />What a gift. I need to do this for myself.Lori Lavender Luzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15394441222262940632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5725106142359702200.post-19073543698860761772019-01-09T10:22:49.062+13:002019-01-09T10:22:49.062+13:00Dear Mali, I totally agree with you about the plan...Dear Mali, I totally agree with you about the planning. I was thinking about it when I stayed with my parents-in-law over Christmas. They are not in good shape and are reluctant to plan anything to make their life easier (even things we would be ready to organise for them), because they count on their children in case they need help.<br />So I wondered what I would do to manage my old age better than them, and I came to the same conclusion as you. Actually, I think I would have come to this conclusion even if I had children, because I experience how exhausting it is to take care of elderly people who didn’t plan anything, especially when you are living far away. And if course you can never be sure that your children will be around when you need them.Léahttps://desmeandresauxetoiles.comnoreply@blogger.com
