We could all take a lesson from an Oregon Centenarian

 

Every Tuesday, Eleanore Rubinstein’s daughter drives her to Store to Doora nonprofit in Portland, Oregon that provides a personal shopping service for housebound seniors who live alone. She’s 104, but she still loves her volunteer work helping other elderly folks. 

Rubinstein calls the agency’s clients to get their shopping list for the week, but she also spends time chatting with them, never rushing the call because she knows it might be the only contact the person has for days. She hasn’t ever met one of the clients, but she still considers them her friends because they talk so often.

"All my life, I've lived by the Golden Rule," she says. "Honey, I get more out of this than I give.”
