This is the class next project It is called "The Greying Population"
What do you think we can do to help our elderly folks who are:
1) Lonely;
2) Poor;
3) & Sick
at the personal and societal level.
So, here it is!
The Greying Population.
I have thought of myself aging into a old lady with my wrinkles and my physical appearances all waxing down. It is really scary. When your senses are all fading away. When i thought of all this, i will always think about the old people roaming around the streets collecting cans for food. When ever i see all this i will wonder, why are they like this? What happen if the blanked out half way and die? It's a mystery. Is there anything i can do to help them? In what ways can i help them? Sometimes, when you help old people, they get frustrated. Sometimes, they will thank you and they will give you a smile! Even thought they don't have a perfect set of shiny teeth they use to have, it still warms my heart every time i see that.
There was a time, when i was walking towards Mac Donald's and we have to cross some streets. I was with Jessica. While i was walking with her, we saw a lady at a age of 75-80, on the floor, using her palm and her foot to move around. My guess was, she fell and she couldn't get up. So we went to help her up. She did not smell pleasant, she must have had problem with washing her clothes alone and making them dry. I was very frustrated at the crowds there, they were all sitting and chatting happily! I walked towards them with Jessica and the old lady and i asked them for a seat for the old lady. They looked at me with a little astonished and irritated. But, they gave her a sit. I thanked the people there and i told the auntie to sit there until she felt okay to walk. After that, she thanked me in her own dialect. She gave me a smile! It might be the warmest smile anyone could give. We continued our way to Mac Donald's.
I've met lots of old people complaining about their sad unfortunate life. Some of them was trying to say that it wasn't their child's fault for all the nuisances that happened. It's not nuisances at all! It is the part when humans break down and their body turn old. But, all i could do is to give them a listening ear and advise them to stay happy. I really hope that they will stay that way. Because, they are at the pit of lifes end. So the only way to make them happy and satisfied of their lifes is staying happy. So that they will end their life and rest in peace.
