Loneliness and Aging: Making Space for Our Elders
with Pamela Slaughter
Loneliness and isolation are common experiences for older people, especially for those who do not have nearby family members or who are not computer literate.
What do you know about the elders in your life or in your neighborhood?
Are they connected to their families in an enriching way?
Do they belong to a caring community of some kind?
What can you do, or are you currently doing to avoid isolation and loneliness?
This conversation is for older adults and people who live near elders or have older adults in their lives. We’ll explore questions, experiences, and obstacles to showing up for elderly people and to generate ideas for connection.
Facilitator Pamela Slaughter is a lifelong Oregonian with varied interests. She retired from her career as an adult protective service investigator for Multnomah County, where she saw firsthand how devastating loneliness and isolation can be. Pamela is the founder and executive director of People of Color Outdoors, a nonprofit designed to help facilitate the reconnection of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color to the outdoors. She is the author of the children’s book Hi! My Name is Robin!, published in 2020, which she hopes will encourage families to bird watch together.
The goal of the Conscious Aging and Community Connections Program is to bring people together, to get to know one another at a deeper level and to encourage one another to live our best possible lives. The Conscious Aging and Community Connections Program is held on the second Monday of each month from 2 to 4 PM.
This program is sponsored by Pine Grove Community House which allows us to keep admission at $5 per session. All money received goes directly to Pine Grove.

Wings
Stop and behold
The flying swallow,
Rising and releasing,
Joyfully soaring upwards
To stream back down
To the earth, gravity’s
Grateful companion.
Like the breath
Entering and leaving,
A joy to stop,
And simply witness
Rising and releasing,
The in and out
Of what we know
As a gift or blessing.
In the unfolding saga of “The Tides of Manzanita, the winds of change begin to gust through the corridors of power, heralding a pivotal confrontation that could alter the course of the town’s history. The stage for this dramatic shift is set at The Cove, the very heart of Manzanita’s whispering winds and murmured secrets.
Under the dim glow of The Cove’s lanterns, the three newest members of the city council—Sophia, Marcus, and Elena—convene in a secluded corner, their faces etched with determination and a hint of apprehension. These are councilors united not by years, but by a shared vision for transparency and a belief in the power of change. Their mission: to challenge the longstanding dominance of Councilor Jed and his unwavering ally, Bart.
As the waves lap gently against the shore outside, the trio’s conversation is fervent, fueled by a blend of idealism and pragmatic concern. “We stand at a crossroads,” Sophia asserts, her voice steady, “between the old guard’s secrecy and a future where transparency guides our governance. This investigation report—the people of Manzanita deserve to know its contents. The mayor should be exonerated. The people deserve to know what their public money went to buy.”
Marcus nods in agreement, his analytical mind racing through potential outcomes. “Jed and Bart have controlled the narrative for too long. It’s time we leverage our collective vote to champion the truth. The cost of silence has been $160,000 and counting. It’s unjustifiable, and for what?”
Elena, the most reserved of the trio, adds, “We must tread carefully, yet boldly. The city manager, let alone Jed and Bart, won’t take kindly to being overruled. We’re risking not just our political futures but possibly our personal safety. After all they engineered the mayor’s exit.”
Marcus added, “Funding the report may have been part of the strategy. Hold this never ending investigation over the mayor’s head until they forced a resignation. Now they don’t need the report so they are burying it. The mayor was innocent, but the powers that be just don’t care.”
Elena says, “But our three votes can change that. We can vote to reveal the report and there’s nothing they can do about it.”
“Well, I doubt Jed will take this lying down. Remember, he put us in this job when there were vacant seats.” Marcus said.
Amidst their clandestine strategy session, Ruby, the observant server with a now well-established connection to the town’s undercurrents of intrigue, moves silently around their table. Her presence is unobtrusive, yet her keen ears miss nothing. The plan unfolding before her resonates with the courage and conviction she’s come to admire in those who seek to unveil the truth of Manzanita.
Emboldened by their shared resolve, Sophia, Marcus, and Elena sketched out their next steps. They agree to draft a resolution for the upcoming council meeting, calling for the release of the investigation report and a detailed accounting of the legal expenses incurred. Their plan is a glimmer of hope in the murky waters of Manzanita’s politics, a testament to their belief in a more transparent and accountable governance.
As the meeting adjourns, the weight of their decision hangs heavily in the air. The fear of retribution is palpable, a silent specter that accompanies them as they depart The Cove. Yet, there is a stronger force at play—a unifying courage that binds them together. They recognize the road ahead will be fraught with challenges, but the promise of a brighter future for Manzanita propels them forward.
Ruby, having witnessed the birth of this bold endeavor, feels a surge of optimism. Her role as an ally to those who seek the truth has never been more critical. As she clears the table, her mind races with possibilities. The alliance she’s formed with Victoria and Shirley now seems poised to welcome new allies in the quest to reveal the council’s lies and illuminate the path to justice.
“The episode closes with the three councilors stepping out into the night, the moon casting long shadows as they navigate the uncertain terrain ahead. Unobserved was a dark figure watching from the side of the parking area, watching the trio of councilors. The stage is set for a showdown that will require not just political savvy but profound bravery, as they confront the entrenched powers that be.
Manzanita, a town accustomed to the quiet ebb and flow of the tides, finds itself on the brink of a tempest. The actions of Sophia, Marcus, and Elena promise to usher in a wave of change, challenging the status quo and daring to dream of a governance as transparent as the waters that surround their beloved town. The battle lines are drawn, and surge ever onward, carrying with them the hopes and fears of a community at the crossroads of destiny. Tune in next week for Episode 6 of “The Tides of Manzanita.”
