Helping the Senior Homes Darya Ghaffari

I will be posting digital violin concerts on here. Music can raise someone's mood, get them excited, or make them calm and relaxed. Music also - and this is important - allows us to feel nearly or possibly all emotions that we experience in our lives. The possibilities are endless. ... It is an important part of their lives and fills a need or an urge to create music. Me personally when I listen to music everything around and my thoughts shuts off and I focus on life. Enjoying life. Enjoying the moment. Dancing. Happiness. That is what I want to do with the violin concerts for my community. For everyone to enjoy the moment and life. I personally listen to Indian music, Arabic, Persian music, and American music including Micheal Jackson, Benne, and Childish Gambino. My taste of music is very different and I love listening to all types of music.

With the unprecedented pandemic we are facing, I have noticed that our senior citizen community is very impacted by this pandemic. The senior citizens are a very important group. They supported us with their wisdom when we were growing up. It is our duty to serve them. They are our second family. I would want to help them with zoom meetings, photography, letters, bracelets, and violin concerts. With the zoom meetings, we would cook with them, watch movies, and especially BINGO NIGHT; I would want to try to bring them joy because they can not go outside and enjoy this beautiful world we live in. Photography would boost their joy as well because I would take pictures of mother earth and our world so they are updated and hence not missing out on anything. They will still be able to experience our mother earth even though they are inside. With letters, I would want to thank them because seniors have plenty of experience in life and they can teach us about enduring change and handling life's challenges. We must treat our elders with respect, even if their bodies or minds are beginning to fail them. Furthermore, bracelets would support them because it would be a joy and violin concerts would be musical concerts from me and others to bring joy with music digitally.
