I became a caregiver because I enjoy making someone else smile and feel that they matter. Spending time with others who may not have family local gives them the sense of purpose, understanding, and love. I enjoy listening to their stories of the past, reading to them, playing games to keep their minds sharp, or just getting them out of the house for a walk or running errands. I believe that everyone wants to stay as independent as possible when they age, so being there for moral support or help with everyday tasks is essential to their state of mind.
