church going
April 27, 2008 · Filed Under happiness-boosters · Comment
My mother, 78, felt pretty well today, with her glucose level sinking below 300 mg/dl so she decided to go to church again with her aged friend. Meeting other people of her age, her cultural and social background, speaking the same language, going through the same rituals makes her feel happier. She thinks the price she had to pay – a little hypocrisy – was worth while paying. She met old friends, changed information, walked. Existing communities are easier to adhere to than building new ones, which always takes some extra effort.
