Quote by Keisha Blair

“Whether or not you consider yourself a caregiver now, at some point, you will be. We will face the death of a parent. We will experience the weight of caregiving, grief, and emotional pressure. That's why Holistic Wealth isn't optional - it's essential.”

“Many caregivers share that they often feel alone, isolated, and unappreciated. Mindfulness can offer renewed hope for finding support and value for your role as a caregiver…It is an approach that everyone can use. It can help slow you down some so you can make the best possible decisions for your care recipient. It also helps bring more balance and ease while navigating the caregiving journey.”

“It doesn't matter whether you have children or not, a spouse or not; if you love anyone, and you're not an a$$hole, the need to care is waiting in the wings. If you are free for now, consider how many flukes and fortunes upon that freedom rests. Freedom is always contingent. Our failure to recognize this is why caregiving hits people's lives like a bus.”

“In his book The Captive Mind, written in 1951-2 and published in the West in 1953, the Polish poet and essayist Czeslaw Milosz paid Orwell one of the greatest compliments that one writer has ever bestowed upon another. Milosz had seen the Stalinisation of Eastern Europe from the inside, as a cultural official. He wrote, of his fellow-sufferers: A few have become acquainted with Orwell’s 1984; because it is both difficult to obtain and dangerous to possess, it is known only to certain members of the Inner Party. Orwell fascinates them through his insight into details they know well, and through his use of Swiftian satire. Such a form of writing is forbidden by the New Faith because allegory, by nature manifold in meaning, would trespass beyond the prescriptions of socialist realism and the demands of the censor. Even those who know Orwell only by hearsay are amazed that a writer who never lived in Russia should have so keen a perception into its life. Only one or two years after Orwell’s death, in other words, his book about a secret book circulated only within the Inner Party was itself a secret book circulated only within the Inner Party.”
