The nature is functioning since time immemorial because the cycle of producing life is continuously flowing. Every creature on this planet love to forward their genes to the next generation for the survival of their identity. Special mention goes to human beings as they are considered as the most civilized and intelligent beings present on earth.
A child when born brings the laughter and joy which fills everyone's heart with the fragrance of love and compassion. The innocence they carry with them mesmerises all and makes the ambience cheerful. The parent who gave birth to the child dive into their baby's world so selflessly that they even forget to live their own life. Their needs, demands, wishes become parents dream to fulfill without ever expecting anything in return. They spend sleepless nights just to make sure of the safety of the baby. The young one's efficient upbringing becomes the first priority of the parents.
Holding the parents helping hands, the children start growing. Time flies and days change. One day they stand on their own feet enabling themselves to run their life in their own terms and conditions. Now a days a trend is shown that after establishing themselves,some children get so busy in their modern life style that they forget they have aged parents to look after. Parents responsibility suddenly feels heavy to their shoulders and they leave no stones unturned to get rid of them. The so called human beings then admit their aged parents in the old-age home. The poor parents feel the defeat life has thrown to them. The eyes which once used to sparkle in their kids' laughter now shed tears in their memories. The hands which once supported their babies to learn walking now shakes to hold the stick for their movement. The mouth which once used to narrate stories to make their children sleep is now enchanting prayers in misery. The heart which once used to beat in their uproar presence now awaits days to see their glimpse once. In this way, with pale eyes and questions on their mind that what wrong they have done to deserve this, they breath their last one day and leave the world forever.
We can never get out of the debt of uncountable sacrifices parents make for us. Atleast we can try to be the ones who looks after them like little babies when they age because it's our moral duty and our love towards them should make us bound to do so. Their blessings are the wheels which takes our life forward. What goes around comes around. So if you are abandoning your parents for the worldly pleasures, time is not far when you will experience the same. That's why always think of the souls who always put you first in every situation without thinking twice about it.
