"LONG LIVE
THE ELDERLY" MOVEMENT
Chart
of the Elderly
Roma
"My hope will never fade,
I will praise you more and more"
(Ps 70, 14)
We say �Long Live the Elderly� because we are
proud of our age. We want everyone to know that being elderly is
beautiful and we want to communicate
a happy image of old age
For this we commit
ourselves:
To
be
courteous and to smile
To
always have a good word for everyone
To
make ourselves
available to the others
Not
to look on
the past with regret, criticising the present
To
take
an interest in everything that concerns elderly people
Not
to avoid those who are more elderly
To
help everyone understand the value of old age
To
help young people not to feel alone or without family
To
pass on
to young people the meaning of life
To believe that our time is useful
To use our free time for those in need
Not to fear to change and to live new experiences
To
love life and always defend it
To
think
that everyone can give something for the others
To
believe that whatever our condition, we can be happy
To
help other elderly people not to be institutionalised
To
care
for a better future and to build it for all
To remind everyone that war is evil
To
always proclaim the value of peace
To
never give up hoping.
