“I take care of a lot. And caring isn’t the same as being good at something.”
This quote resonates deeply with me as I navigate my own journey of caring for my aging parents. As I step into this new role, I've realized that the emotional investment I have in their well-being doesn’t always translate into confidence or competence in the practical aspects of caregiving.

It’s a reminder that it’s okay to not have all the answers just because our hearts are fully engaged.
