Old age wisdom

Riyatullah Farooqui by Riyatullah Farooqui
May 22, 2023
Reading Time: 4 mins read

When a person crosses the age limit of forty, the third and last major change in personality takes place.

The stage of the first big change is the form of puberty and the second big change is the age of 18 years. At this post-40 stage of age, the attitude towards life changes completely. Indolence is replaced by seriousness and prudishness is replaced by modesty. A strange thing happens that time suddenly speeds up. And day by day the feeling becomes stronger that the age of 67 years is nothing, it is very short. It is the result of these changes that Facebook etc. but you will find very few people over 40 years of age posting on other people’s walls. These stupidities belong only to youth.

At this age, most people have to face a serious crisis and it happens that if they stick to the same principle that friendship should only be with peers, then understand that the disaster comes from two contexts; they will not know when this circle of over forty people first became an association of bored people and then an NGO for psychiatric patients. Why? Because total seriousness is another name for dryness. If he does not get the water of humor, the next step is the death of moderate nature. Another reference to destruction is that all the information of the small and big innovations of any age is with the youth. Since they are new entrants into the world of consciousness, they are deeply interested in everything.

In contrast, the over-40s tend to know only what we need to know. For example, a young person would collect information about a submarine, and how it works. How is underwater warfare fought? And how do people live in it, etc. etc? But a person over 40 will be stuck thinking what do I have to do with a submarine? I have to get my son to join the Navy for a while.

The result of this thinking of people over forty is that they are only at home one day and even at home, they are the most common. They are worried about the loss of the modern phone that their daughter had bought them, but they are worried that all the phone numbers have been lost. In such a case, tell the grandson that the data is saved on Google, then his eyes widen in surprise and he is ready to leave the circle. They will see you in the morning wearing new clothes and preparing to go somewhere.

Daughter-in-law asked, “Father! Where are you going?” and you will say “Son, I’m just going to Saddar to buy a flight ticket.” Daughter-in-law said, “Father! It can be easily booked on your mobile only”.

So you wonder how this can happen? What is all this? Is the intellect as weak as the eyes? No, it is the result of his policy that we only need to know about the things we need. And in this case, the mobile phone seems to be an ancient tribal enemy. After Imran Khan, you will find the most opponents of mobile phones.

If you want to add color to your life, it is obligatory to make friends with youngsters. It is very easy to make friends with these bad guys. Arrange three things. These will be your friends. First, advise them only when they bring their problems to you. If you give free advice, then he will not accept even your own son, rather he will take the opposite distance. The second thing is to sit at the level of your age and avoid talking to them.

Be at your age level only when a very serious matter is being discussed. General gossip opportunities but you have to go to their age level and it’s not a difficult task, you come from that age level. It is not difficult to turn around and go there for a while. The third thing is to feed them sticky things from time to time. This task is very easy if you ask a man of your age.

“What will you eat? So he will first refuse, then on your insistence, he will say: “The eagles go and eat something light”. How lightly he eats, you will know only when you reach Shaheen Shinwari. Instead, ask a young person: “Eat something, man! Tell me, what are you going to eat?” He will say, “Sir! Feed me the paneer paratha, I haven’t eaten for a long time”.

Where is Shaheen Shinwari of your age and where is the paneer paratha of this child? Isn’t it fun? The benefit of this friendship with youth is that you will never get bored, you will not suffer from depression, you will not become psychotic, and you will stay updated with every innovation of your time. As a result, people will not understand you as “ch”. Will not prefer to avoid your company. And the freshness of your nature will be your reference. Your arrival, but the faces will not come down but will open. It is the only sure way of living in every age. If you don’t accept it, consider it your destiny that your entry into the assembly of the living will be a whisper.
