When you become frustrated with older people because of what they can not do, think of how frustrated they must feel because they can no longer do it.
It's easy to feel a surge of frustration when an older loved one struggles with tasks that once seemed simple for them.
Watching them grapple with technology, forgetful moments, or physical limitations can test our patience.
However, in these moments, it's essential to remember that our frustration is but a shadow of what they must be experiencing internally.
In life, the roles we play often shift.
Today, we may be the ones offering support; tomorrow, we might find ourselves in need of it.
By approaching our older loved ones with empathy, we honor their journey and enrich our own, creating a legacy of compassion that transcends generations.
