Rebooting

"We reboot in order to reactivate the system of our lives," Celeste Frazier.

The need to reboot is something familiar in our computer/technological society. Celeste Frazier uses that term to indicate that we can also reboot our lives. The ways she suggests are: meditation, inspirational reading, providing service, being with a spiritual community: all good ways for us to stay grounded in caregiving. Celeste Frazier also suggests that we reconsider some aspects of spirituality: citing the the word "satan" means crazy thinking in Aramaic -- the language Jesus would have used. It seems that many things bring us back to the power of our thoughts and the importance of monitoring the quality of our thoughts. Even when life is serene and going smoothly this is important; it is paramount when living with any stress, to include the stress of living with dementia.
