An 80 years old man was sitting on a sofa in his house along with his 45 y/o son.
Suddenly, a crow preached on their window
The father asked his son, "what is this"?
The son replied, "It is a crow"
After a few minutes, the father asked his son the 2nd time, "What is this?"
The son answered, "Father, I just told you, it is a crow"
After a little while, the father asked the same question in the 3rd time.
At this time, some expression of irritation was felt on the son's face.
After little while the father asked his son again the 4th time, " What is this?"
this time the son shouted at his father, "why do you keep on asking me the same question again and again?
I've told you its a CROW! a CROW!
And the sad father went to his room in a tears on his face..
Do you treat your old fathers or grandfathers like this? They just need your time someone to talk too.. :(

That's what i call harsh reality of life. Childhood is a stage when we have doubts and questions for almost everything and we have want everyone to listen to us. But when we become old and we have answers for almost everything we have no one who listens to us. Give time and a listening ear to our elders who have so much of wisdom and knowledge to share but we don't give time and keep searching answers elsewhere.

That is sad. I think that elders should have the up most respect. The thing is that life passes in a blink of an eye and the people that you have are not meant to be with you forever. It is when they are gone that one regrets a single word said..or even those that weren't said. I would give anything for a few more moments with my grandparents. They all were very influential with me and so important. It is sad that people don't see this until it is too late.
