To Make Them Feel Worth Living Still

I am  old,  but I have a lot to share with you young men !

The awareness to bring some hope in the old people especially in their tough times is very significant indicating willingness to do the same.

Old age itself is identified to be dependent on others. 

And who wants to depend on others for own daily physiological chores. In such situation old people are as helpless as a baby.

Add to this there is strong feeling that every body tries to avoid the old people.

They have this dominant feeling that they are good for nothing. And are a bundle of inevitable liability for others.

What possibly can be done to make them feel to be worth of some thing?

Our sarasar vivek ie power of discretion suggests that yes, we can do some thing significant in this regard.

If one tries,it will be found that old people have lived their life and have learnt some thing worth from their life experiences. They are willing to share their  life time wisdom gained  with young generation.

If young generation shows willingness to learn something from their life experiences,such old people will readily be willing to share the same. And this feeling being worthy of some thing will bring some hopes in their old age misery.

Giving them love and care is another effective way.

Communicating with them lovingly and respectfully will boost their health and develop their attachment with the family members.

And I think the one who is involved with old people emotionally in their tough days will find many possible ways to encourage such old people to feel hopeful in their last stage of life.
