Need for NGOs

Can anyone answer my question what is the need to have NGOs to take care of the person whom should be cared by their children?

I know no one have the answer. Today in India more than 20s of NGOs are working for the welfare of the old aged people. What is the need of it.

HAVE WE BECOME SO MUCH LAZY THAT CAN'T CARE OUR PARENTS TOO, OR WE ARE FEEL SHAME TO HAVE THEM WITH US??????

Just think of it all of you>>>>>>>>>

• Just think if they have felt shame when you were baby and left you alone, then where, at what stage you would be?
• They took care of you when you needed them then why you are going to leave them at the stage when they need your help?
• I know you don't have the answer then why are you leaving them without reason?
• I know your reason might be that they smell or they always need assistance or they always need someone to be with them to help, Isn't it?
• you too were smelly in your childhood, at that time you too needed assistance and help every time RIGHT????

At last i think there is no reason left with you to leave your parent

So please take care................

THEY NEED YOU!!!!

THEY NEED YOU!!!!

THEY NEED YOU!!!!

THEY REALLY NEED YOU. SO DON'T LEAVE THEM ALONE TO STRUGGLE..........AT THEIR LAST STAGE.......

What do you mean by ADULT EDUCATION

Adult Education is all about literacy, in which adults learn the most basic materials, can develop their personality and even attain advanced degrees. Adult education actually is not only about eradicating illiteracy among adults in the country, it is also about continuing their education which includes the three R’s (reading, writing and arithmetic). Malcolm Knowles is also called the father of adult education, pioneered the field of adult learning in the U.S in the 20th century.

Only though adult education can we address the real problems of society – like power sharing, wealth creation, gender and health issues

said Adama Ouane, director of the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning.

An Appreciation Short Story

Below is a cute and wonderful story that will surely leave you wondering...

A long time ago, there was a huge tree. It loved a little boy very much, the boy loved to come and play around it everyday. He climbed to the treetop. He ate the apples. He would take naps under its shade. He loved the tree, the tree was so happy. Time went by... One day the boy came back to the tree. The tree said, "Come play with me." The little boy said, "I am no longer a kid, I do not play around a tree anymore. I want toys, I need money to buy them". Sorry I do not have money, but you can pick all my apples and sell them. So you will have money. The boy was so excited. He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left happily. The tree was happy. The boy never came back after he picked the apples. The tree was sad. One day, the boy who now turned into a man returned and the tree was excited. "Come and play with me", the tree said. I do not have time to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter, can you help me? "Sorry but I don't have any houses. But you can chop off my branches to build your house. So the man cut all the branches of the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him happy but the man never came back since then. The tree again was lonely and sad. One hot summer day, the man returned and the tree was delighted. "Come and play with me!", said the tree. I am getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat? "Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail faraway and be happy. So the man cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and didn't show up for a long time. The tree was happy, but it was not true. Finally the man returned after many years. "Sorry my boy, but I have nothing else to give you. No more apples for you, the tree said". "No problem, I don't have any teeth to bite it with". "No more trunk for you to climb on . "I am too old for that now", the man said. "I really cannot five you anything...the only thing left is my dying roots. "I am a tired man after all these years, "the man said. Good! Old tree roots are the best place to lean on and rest. Come, come sit down with me and rest. The man sat down and the tree was glad, and smiled with tears.

Everybody has an apple tree in your life, and they are your parents!

Something to Reflect On

A new quote to reflect on:

-"Old age is not a disease, it is strength and survivor ship , triumph over all kinds of vicissitudes and disappointments, trials and illnesses."

Health

In a par, every single out of 5 suffers from diabetes by the age of 79. According to 23andme website, DNA variations might raise this to one in three, making lifestyle choices on factors like exercise and weight control even more critical.


Age-related Macular degeneration is the most important cause of irreversible vision loss among old aged people over 60 in western world. If your genes put you at increased risk for this condition, you should go for frequent eye check up and take other necessary measures to protect eye sight.

A Letter from "Mom n Dad"...

My child,
When I get old, I hope you understand 'n have patience with me ... In case I break the plate, or spill soup on the table because I’m losing my eyesight, I hope you don’t yell at me.Older people are sensitive, always having self pity when you yell.When my hearing gets worse 'n I can’t hear what you’re saying, I hope you don’t call me ‘Deaf!’Please repeat what you said or write it down.
I’m sorry, my child.I’m getting older.When my knees get weaker, I hope you have the patience to help me get up.Like how I used to help you while you were little, learning how to walk.Please bear with me, when I keep repeating myself like a broken record, I hope you just keep listening to me.Please don’t make fun of me, or get sick of listening to me.
Do you remember when you were little 'n you wanted a ballon? You repeated yourself over 'n over until you get what you wanted.Please also pardon my smell. I smell like an old person.Please don’t force me to shower.My body is weak.Old people get sick easily when they’re cold. I hope I don’t gross you out.

It’s all part of getting old.You’ll understand when you’re older.'n if you have spare time, I hope we can talk even for a few minutes.I’m always all by myself all the time, 'n have no one to talk to.I know you’re busy with work.Even if you’re not interested in my stories, please have time for me.
Do you remember when you were little? I used to listen to your stories about your teddy bear.When the time comes, 'n I get ill 'n bedridden, I hope you have the patience to take care of me.I’m sorry if I accidentally wet the bed or make a mess.I hope you have the patience to take care of me during the last few moments of my life.I’m not going to last much longer, anyway.When the time of my death comes, I hope you hold my hand 'n give me strength to face death.
