The aim of our giving away life.

I have been thinking these two days, with all the anger and sadness- what is the reason for some children do not want to take care their parent. I feel sick and and pity for that. Well, they are getting old, the feeling of being abandoned by someone is not good at all. They are feeling sad, oppressive and bitter and mourning for themselves, however, they have no choice but to survive the final tough times at the end of the life on their own.
May be they will cry but inside their heart, may be they will be sad but inside the tear-welled eyes, may be they want to survive but through their withering body. It doesn't seem fair when life demands more from them as they have given all their time to the children and this is not what they should finally deserve. What's going on with the world??? What's going on with all these computer savvy, intellectual pursuing, mental developing, new era generation. Shouldn't they learn a thing or two on how to concern, love, care, and support their parents that someone of the family should have this indispensable duty to keep an eye on them? Gosh! What happens to the world?
This is the third days my aunt being abandoned by his son in my house. The moment when i see her again- the eight months being apart from each other the day she left after Chinese New Year , her hair is thinner, nearly white, and her face was gaunt. She smells sour as the the people on medication sometimes do. And I am too surprised what had happened to her and all the things i could hear from her daughter in law, was all about how she is being useless at this old age disease. Sick, can't support herself on certain daily activity and weak of sight. Where are all the "good" boys and girls they once were gone? Did they forget already where they were coming from?
I know for my aunty, this old age disease, what she is going through now, would be so much harder for her to continue. The emptiness would be so unbearable, however, who can help her do her final project, walk that final bridge between life and death. May God bless you all the time and should there any unlucky time , may God always be with you.
I have a momentary silence in my mind now. The time now is ten ten at night. I shouldn't think too much. God will always be with us. I know tomorrow is gonna be a new and beautiful day. Cheers.
