Introduction

I am the evening and weekend Activity coordinator for a low income- independent living Senior complex. There are over 200 individuals living here  ranging in age from 62- 99 . It is a very diverse community and one of the things that I enjoy about the tenants is that they don't worry about being politically correct. They are very proud to be Chinese, Taiwanese, Indian, and American. They willing share their culture with one another and in general have formed a "community"
They have lived through invasions, wars,  poverty, suffered imprisonment for their religious and political beliefs and just as important are still living productive and independent lives . These are their stories
