Old people are gold

Today I visited my only grandfather in law. He is in his 96th now, which even by outdated standards a great achievement. But now he is so sick and he can't even do his own work. Talking with him and seeing him makes me wonder what we accomplish in this life.

He has been a farmer and a carpenter throughout his life and earned a lot without troubling anyone. I can remember how my dad used to tell me stories about his stays at grandfathers place and how he used to teach him stuff. They are simply beautiful, when i hear such stories i feel cold. By cold i mean what i feel about the old days, it is that those days were beautiful, more greenish, more calm. It is so magical, just like living in those Lord of The Rings hobbits villages. :)

I wandered about in his house today and saw pictures of him in his younger ages, and i felt so sad about this whole illusion named as life. We all will be old one day, and with or without ICT if we can live a happy life, that should be it. Keep thinking on that makes me feel so sorry about nowadays middle class children, they are too stressed and much more forced by their parents and the society to go and compete in life.

Rather we all should think that if we can be happy doing some quite and calm thing that is what we need. We install anti-malware software in our PCs, but we never install them within our selves. That's the reason why we always get infected by new viruses which comes with a special name, new Inventions in Technology.

Think...

Thank you.
