Hi user,
Watching our parents grow older is no doubt challenging and heart wrenching part of life.How could we not feel the sharp pain of anticipatory sorrow of seeing them getting old , weak day by day.
But we have to ACCEPT REALITY OF LIFE.
# Embrace life as it comes.
# Be a best caregiver for them. Nurture , reassure, protect , love your parents with full love and respect . As they need you now .
# Speak out to someone close ---- vent out all your worries.
# Honour and celebrate their lives while they are here.Help them find peace, enjoyment each day.
# Tune in with them ---- don't project your own feelings , assumptions onto them. Get to know them better.
# Be there for them when they need you.
Next Steps
# try to live in present
# don't let unnecessary thoughts about future ruin today's happiness
# seek professional help if it seems difficlt to cope up on your own.

The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear."
--Nelson Mandela
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
