To Our Dear Child

Guys check this, its very touching message and i am sharing it to all of you who have still parents, i hope its not too late for us:One day when you see us old, weak and weary, have patience and try to understand us. If we get dirty when eating, if we cannot dress on our own, please bear with us and remember the times we spent feeding you and dressing you up. If, when we speak to you, we repeat the same things over and over again, do not interrupt us, just listen to us. When you were small, we had to read to you the same story a thousand and one times until you went to sleep, when we do not want to have a shower, neither shame or scold us. Remember when we had to chase you with thousand of excuses to get you to the shower? When you see our ignorance of new technologies, help us navigate our way through those worldwide webs. We taught you how to do so many things, to eat the right food, to dress appropriately, to fight for your rights. When at some moments we lost the memory or the thread of our conversation, let us have the necessary time to remember and if we cannot do not be nervous, as the most important thing is not our conversation but surely to be with you to have you listening to us. If ever we do not feel of eating, do not focus us. We know well when we need to and when not to eat. When our tired legs gave way and do not allow us to walk with out a cane, lend us your hand the same way we did when you tried your first faltering steps and when someday we say to you that we do not want to live any more, that we want to die. Do not get angry, someday you will understand. Try to understand that our age is not just lived but survived. Someday you will realize that, despite our mistakes, we always wanted the best for you,and we tried to prepare the way for you. You must not feel sad, angry nor shamed for having us near you, instead try to understand us and help us like we did when you were young. Help us walk. He us to live the rest of our life with love and dignity. We will pay you with a smile and by the immense love we have always had for you in our hearts.
