The beautiful part of being old
One of the wonderful phases of the cycle of life is the arrival of a newborn baby into the world, after a months-long agonizing pregnancy.
The devoted mother, after labor, sees her wonderful child in her arms and immediately forgets all the pains she passed through. You can hear the baby crying because he/she is hungry.
Looking after the baby becomes the task of her mother, in the morning, afternoon, evening, and at night. The mother can't sleep when the child is sick, making her lose the precious sleep she needs.
This uneasy task of bringing up a child will go on every day until the child is of age and can take care of herself or himself.
Like every living thing, a human being grows. Year after year, everyone celebrates his or her birthday. Like running water going down the drain, everyone becomes old without thinking of how fast the years are going by.
Old age is a difficult part of life that many fear. Loneliness, insecurity, and neglect are some of the issues that worry many old age people, even when there are homes or families to take care of them.
A man continues to grow and at a certain age, becomes like a child once again in his feeding and cleaning of himself. He starts acting like a child, sometimes crying and complaining about unnecessary things.
Is it really worth living when you find yourself in this situation? Yes, it's worth living.
Life is more precious than silver and gold. It's worth being in this world to explore, learn, and teach. Many simply don't value life because they fully depend on material things, and when they fail to get it, they become disappointed.
To be happy in life until old age, people also need to seek the spiritual part of life. It is written, "Seek ye first the kingdom of heaven."
Does this sound stupid? Just give it a try, and you will discover the value of life without a second thought of committing suicide when the going gets tough.
