The Quandary Of Old Parents/Children's Relationship

 If you expect your children to take care of you just because you took care of them when they were young,  

then that is the wrong concept and the wrong expectation.

You took care of your children because you chose to bring them into this world. That was your responsibility, not theirs.  

Because of that, children are not obligated to take care of you. To expect that is to treat it like a business deal.

Children will only take care of you if, while they were growing up, you instilled in them good character, morality, spirituality, love, and most importantly, humanity.  

Then, they will take care of you not out of duty, but if they truly want to — out of agape love.

Unfortunately many parents have exactly this kind of conversation with their children.Nags, there is saying "children come through us not for us".When they become adults they belong to their spouses or just distant relatives like others.The sooner we realize this, the better.

One foolish thing parents should not do.We can give them education, care for them as children(because that's our duty) etc.But we should never give away our movable properties, house or land to them when we are alive.We need  to save for our health and needs till our last breath.

Like that cartoon we all love our children to bits.But it is heart wrenching when children do not reciprocate the same.Maybe they came into this world because of our lust or as that son says we should not make them feel obliged or guilty 🤷🏻‍♀️. 

We should take care of our life, health,be interested in our profession, hobbies etc.

As you have rightly said, we should bring them up well and instill good values.If they care for us good, even if they fail its ok.If they lead a successful, independent and happy life - that is our success and we should be contended with that.😊

Life Lesson From Scuba Diving

As I was diving this time around at Surin islands at Thailand.I  realised diving teaches us to lead our life journey. At the beginning of diving,we need to jump into the ocean,as in human life ,we come out of the womb. Then we submerge to the depth of ocean with excitation and full of energy to see the flora  and fauna of sea,the wonderful terrain of underwater and the push and pull of the current of ocean. As in life a child growing into adulthood. There is lot to see and experience and have fun. Then time,energy and air saps out from the diver and the diver need to ascend to lower depth towards the surface of sea.As human life we cross manhood to elderly. As at this stage,we can only see the depth of ocean with renewed activities and new divers down at the depth of ocean and we can't go down due risk of decompress sickness.Similar situations happens to human life journey too,as  As I was diving this time at Surin islands in Thailand, I realised that diving teaches us ho...
