Thank you for following H2O this far! You may notice that we often use the term older adults in our communication materials such as articles, social media posts and events. We want to make sure that the older adults are respectfully addressed without making them feel estranged - like they are a whole different category of human beings because we believe that they are all part of us as we are also part of them! It is important to learn and be cognisant of the effect different terminologies/labels have on people. Hope that you learned something new today! #h2onetwork # learnwithus #respect #olderadults #olderandwiser #themoreyoulearn #intergenerational #youngatheart

We had the pleasure of hearing one of our very own volunteers, Amanda Chan, speak last night. Amanda discussed the importance of enjoying the journey and not just wanting to reach the destination. In life, we often take advantage of the little things; we don’t stop to smell the roses. When people only focus on reaching the destination, they are missing out on so many wonderful things along the way. ... Amanda reminded us of this. She stated that we cannot attach negative labels to ourselves and we have to be fair to ourselves. Just because you thought something about yourself is not a good thing, does not necessarily make it true. Thank you Amanda, it was an amazing night! If you are interested in our future HIGI meetings, stay tuned on our social media. Join us every Thursday at 7pm EST! #intergenerational #volunteer #staysafe #virtual #stayhome #meeting #friends #motivation #inspire #hopeful #joinus #support #welcome #happy #insightful #happy #enjoythejourney #h2onetwork
