Kindness of others

Today I went out to a rural property to start the process of listing it for sale. The elderly owner is in ill health and has no immediate family to care for him. A delightful gentleman with a sense of humor despite his health problems.

He is surrounded by friends who come out and care for him and his home. What a delight it is to see the unselfish acts of these people. All work full time, have families and homes of their own yet they have come together to be there for their friend.

When I see so many selfish and self centered acts on a daily basis this was inspiring. When we look beyond ourselves and see the needs of others and reach out to them we can only become better human beings.

For the friends of this man it is not a burden but a joy. A testament to what friendship is all about. Loving and caring for one another through good times and bad.

Another reason I love being involved in real estate, meeting wonderful people!
