"Warmth of the Soul" for those who are always in my heart
On the first day of October the whole country celebrates the Day of Older Persons — a pure and bright holiday, a celebration of our parents, grandmothers and grandfathers.
This is not just an official date on the calendar, but a special moment when all the kindest words and thoughts are directed to people who have gone through a long and dignified life path. This day reminds not only society as a whole but each of us that there are people nearby who are waiting for our care, attention and simple human warmth.
Under this very motto — "Warmth of the Soul" — on the eve of the holiday, September 29, a heartfelt congratulatory event took place. The organizers were Elvira Arkhipova, librarian of City Library Branch No. 7, together with the chairwomen of the local community councils "Mirny", Gulbanu Galyaminskaya, and "Buguldinka", Maria Garapshina. Active participants were students of School No. 5, who gladly responded to the opportunity to say "thank you" to the older generation.
Volunteers of goodwill visited at home elderly people whose lives are a living history of our country. Words of deep gratitude and sincere wishes were addressed to:
• Home-front veterans Magfuga Shavaleevna Ibneeva and Maria Trofimovna Shvedchikova, whose selfless labor during the war helped forge the Great Victory.
• Labor veterans Raif Zufarov, Zaynab Muzafarovna Latypova and Minfania Mingazitdinovna Garapshina, who devoted decades of their lives to the development and prosperity of their native land.
• The family of the soldier killed in the special military operation, Bayrashev — Lyubov Nikolaevna and Nikolai Ilyich — who bear the heavy burden of loss and deserve our endless respect and support.
Participants of the event spoke warm words of gratitude for conscientious work, for priceless life experience, for the kindness and wisdom that the older generation passes on to the young. Grandmothers and grandfathers, with tears in their eyes but joy in their hearts, received the congratulations. Each was presented with a modest gift carrying the most important wishes — health, well‑being and longevity.
Such events are not one‑off occurrences but an important lesson in humanity. By paying attention to the older generation, we set the most important example of respect and compassion for our children and teenagers. It is well known that every person, especially in old age, needs attention. And how pleasant it is to realize that this attention exists, and that young people walk the streets of our city bringing to their grandmothers and grandfathers the most precious thing — the warmth of their souls.
