I love people. I am honest and trustworthy. My parents raised me with manners and to be respectable in public and privately. As civilized humans we have an obligation to help others and a right to be helped by others. I've spent many years caring for children as a nanny. Firstly, I birthed and raised six children. I married at the early age of 15 years and my husband was 16 years. We were born in Virginia, but spent most of our lives in GA. We were married for 23 years until his death at the age of 39. My deceased husband was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and I definitely became his caregiver. I just naturally love helping others whether it is a close relative or a stranger I meet on the street. I am not always able to help financially; however, I do love giving others my undivided attention and words of inspiration and motivation. I have always been told that I am a good listener. I am simply blessed by God to care about life, living things and my fellow human beings. What do I like about being a care-giver? I love pleasing people and helping them to feel better about what may be affecting them adversely. I love comforting those in need. We all know how wonderful it feels when relief comes after pain. We all know the "sigh" of relief after suffering. So should we not also feel happy and identify with the joy of each other upon overcoming an obstacle; any kind of obstacle?
