a day at old folks home
went to visit my granduncle at the home today.
well,the emotional whirlpool i experienced there cant be phrased in words.
watching the elderlys sitting there in their wheelchairs,all alone,staring blankly into space.i cant help but to fore guess my fate when i get old.
most have sight,hearing and/or vocal impairs plus a mixture of other illnesses,including the lost of limbs etc.communication is a undeniable problem.to them,they live to be alive,instead of being alive to live.
smiles lack from their faces.wrinkles lined on their pale faces and etched from the sides of their lips.it's obvious taht age had long started it's tireless attacks on their skin.emotions void from most of their faces.
i could not help to imagine that since they're devoid of physical actions cause of restrains in their bodies,there are lesser imputs of memories.thus,could flashes of old memories be continuously replayed in their minds( to passs time and so as to not forget about the pass)?although there's no lack of fond memories but smiles still lack from their faces as they had learn to treasure every single happiness,to feel them instead of letting them show and seeping from them.for sad and despair memories,they rather let it out,thus resulting in frequent pained expressions on their face?
how about my feelings when i visited the old folks' home?
what could i say?
i feel like crying.
in this big world,i seem so small.
i dunno..
what if i leave this world without achieving anything?
without achieving any purposes which i meant to achieve?
without making this world a better place?
why do i even exists anyway?
