If your parents are 65 and above, please listen.
They are not going to tell you they are running out of time. That is not how they were built. They will wave you off, say they are fine, tell you not to worry, because they spent a lifetime protecting you from hard truths and they are still doing it now.
But time is not asking their permission.
Look closely the next time you see them, really look. The hands that once seemed so capable, the voice that used to fill a room, the eyes that still light up the moment you walk in, because you walking in is still, after all these years, one of the best parts of their day.
You are so busy becoming while they are quietly diminishing, and both things are happening at the same time and nobody talks about it.
The repeated stories are not a malfunction. They are what mattered most to them, they are trying to pass something to you before they go, so receive it.
One day you will be mid-sentence and suddenly remember the exact way they laughed, and it will stop you cold, and you would trade almost anything to hear it one more time in real time, not just in memory.
That day is coming, you do not know when.
So call, not when you have time, because you do not have time, nobody does, but call anyway, visit anyway, sit in the quiet with them and let it mean something.
Give them your presence while they can still feel it, not later.
Now.
لا اعلم لمن أوجه هذا الكلام ولكن اتمنى يفيدك:
عِش حياة أحلامك، كن شجاعًا بما يكفي لتعيش الحياة التي تحلم بها وفقًا لأهدافك ورؤيتك، لا وفقًا لتوقعات الآخرين وآرائهم..
—من روائع Roy T. Bennet
اجر الصيام محد يقدر ياخذه منك ، بمعنى ان الانسان يوم الحساب تؤخذ من حسناته وتعطى للأشخاص الذين اساء لهم واغتابهم ماعدا الصيام لا أحد يستطيع اخذ أجره منك حتى ولو لم يتبقى في صحيفتك غيره ، حمى الله هذه العبادة لعظمتها عنده
المخيف مو انك تصرف على السفر، المخيف انك بعد ٢٠-٢٥ سنة تلتفت ورا ما تلقى من ذكرياتك إلا طريق الدوام رايح جاي، لا عشت تجربة تغيرك ولا ذكرى تعيش معك
السفر يعلم و يصقل مهارات مختلفة تماماً!
