Content: The wisdom of the elderly
Being thankful is a huge part of the wisdom of the elderly. They’re thankful for the life they’ve lived and for being able to see how the world continues to develop. They don’t regret the difficulties they went through because they understand they wouldn’t have learned so many valuable lessons without them. When they’re playing cards with their grandchildren and spending quality time with their families, you see just how full of life they really are. They remind us how important it is to work, to do what we love, and to expand our abilities as much as we can. However, they also remind us that our lives shouldn’t revolve around that. Elderly people regret the moments in which they were too focused on professionalism and work instead of creating memories with their loved ones. On the other hand, they do mention how vital it is to feel satisfied and proud of our hard work. When talking about this, I can’t help but remember an 80-year-old woman who enrolled in painting classes although she had never painted before. Now she gives paintings to her entire family, which makes her feel thankful and proud of being able to create art despite her age.
