A group of aged care residents at St Claire Nursing Centre in Missouri, USA are sharing their words of wisdom and warming hearts at the same time.
The advice written on whiteboards and held by the residents have gone viral on Facebook.
The homes’ activities manager, Debbie Michael said the idea started out small, giving residents a chance to enlighten young people on their social media page with “Resident advice of the day”.
Since the first photo of 91-year-old Beneta was posted in August advising young people to “live a good clean life”, the daily photos have skyrocketed in popularity.
One resident, 90-year-old Bob has accidentally become a social media celebrity after his advice from the heart sparked his own hashtag #BeLikeBob was shared over 129,000 times, liked by 33,000 users and sparked a conversation of more than 14,000 comments.
His simple message was “Find someone to love and keep on loving them”.
Can’t argue with that kind of advice!
