A lot of aged people await their ultimate visitor and spend days in a gloomy mood. They get cranky and react negatively to the youth and their energy. They even attract attention towards themselves just to feel important. souls like them pass on without gaining anything in particular. They would have had spent their youth and middle age without caring to pray or without helping others in general. It is indeed sad that they do not realize the importance of prayer and how it can influence the mindset and make it stable well before old age sets in.
How can we avert this
we can pray daily for five minutes at least
we can help others in whatever way we can
we can remain cheerful and look forward to better things
we should remember that this life is temporary and youth does not last long enough
we should mingle with youth and kids and help them by guiding them along the right path without insulting their feelings or their way of behavior
we should remember to treat elders kindly because if it is their turn today, it will be ours tomorrow
do some good deeds before passing on
remember there is a superior power which will help us if we do good (even a smile is a good deed)
have a blessed life
