Heard of
the death of my friend’s grandfather, RIP age 100+.
I always
visit my wife’s grandmother aged 100+, when I looked at her, paying attention
to her movements and the way she looked at people. It seems that she have gone
back into childhood. Way back from childhood, like a baby. When the time that
we can’t survive on our own. That we need to depend on people for our
existence. She can’t walk on her own,
she can’t see properly, her memory system is full thus she can’t remember or
recall anything. Just like an old PC, hard disk are taking a long time to read
and store and memory is always full.
I reflect
it to myself, how a strong and healthy man like me can 1 day be old and will
need to depend on people to survive. Now I can live all by myself, I can
survive and with no one’s help I can live through only to find myself alone and
wanting a partner. But still I can survive. But a baby can’t survive on it’s
own, the baby need someone to take care to survive, if not he’ll die.
What if you
are old, and found out that you can’t walk on your own?
Can’t see what is in front of you, permanently?
Can’t
remember what you did 2 minutes ago?
Can’t hug
your loved ones?
Can’t go to
the toilet by yourself?
Can’t eat
by yourself?
Just
waiting for life’s end while others continue on in the world that once you have
journey too.
Are you
afraid?
Are you
afraid to get old?
Everyone
will get old, so there’s no way to avoid getting old unless you did the
rockstar thing. Kill yourself before you get old. SO what do you think we
should do?
Appreciate
Life and Enjoy it because you will get old.
Is 60
consider old? Or 80? Or 90? 100?
You retired
at 55, so you got about a few years left before you can go skating youself. SO
use your time wisely. Don’t sleep so
much, come out and enjoy the world, stop sitting in front of a book face
website and forget about life. Get angry, get happy, get sad, get weird, get
wicked , feel everything…
Before you
can’t feel anything….
