Too much too ask for???
Sometimes I wonder where all this will end ,
I have been alone all my life.
Never had close friends who lifted me when i was down,
Nor a close cousin or relatives who supported me when I needed most,
Maybe born as first child thought me maturity in childhood, killing that innocence in me.
Being eldest child distant me from my siblings for some odd reasons,
And my love life has been a rollercoaster
But I never complained , but
Sometimes I crave for that love and care
Numerous times I feel like shouting and asking ,
Why me??? But whom do I ask this question
Don't I deserve some love , care and happiness
That affection that I am also being loved.
How can a person be so unlucky
To not recieve love or care by any means,
Is it too much too ask for ???

Read MoreBeing a caregiver has its challenges. It is mandatory to be very strong and nonchalant. This is written for all those who are faced with different emotions that go with it and it's my way of saying "you arent alone". Remember that the greatest battles are fought by strongest soldiers. Keep your chin up.

Having an elder at home,
Puts one in a different zone,
The tantrums and mood swings,
One never knows what each day brings.
Life can be a different ball game,
Moments with them are never the same,
Singing spree or blame game,
Barrage of advice or calling names,
They put a baby to shame.
With elders you can never reason,
Grumpy is their face in any season,.
Everything has to be on time,
Routine makes things go fine.
Medicines to give, diapers to be changed,
Things in the room can never be rearranged,
Sometime one gets pushed to the wall,
being strong can help to face them all.
Smiling less and groaning more,
Their words can make one sore,
Yet when you know they dont mean it,
It can make your spirit soar.
Be prepared for their story time
the same, line by line, every time!
They remember events of the past,
Recent ones, though, somehow get lost!
Treat them like a gentle flower,
Serve them with all that's in your power,
It is not at all easy to be a caregiver,
Emotions can go on a roller coaster,
Faith and friends shine like silver,
When hopelessness takes over.
It's a privilege given to the select few,
Not everyone gets to repay what's due!
They too don't want to depend on you,
Remember it's hard for them too!
Respecting them is an absolute must,
It's not easy to win their trust.
Consider this as a test,
You have to serve without rest
and give it your best,
You are blessed,
There's no need to be stressed.
Life has many battles in store,
Never let it affect your core.
Many times one may want to quit,
But in the end it's all worth it!

Read MoreIf you do something great you deserves respect from everyone.
If you are eldest and your only achievement is doing Youngers confidence down.
Then sorry you can't deserve respect from my side.
Age is not a measurement of respect.
It could be earn, you don't need to beg for it.
#respect #measurement #elder @mirakeeRespect
Senior citizens want respect from ourselves just because they are elder then ours.

"GROWING OLDER"
--©11maria
We getting old day by day,
From kids to young Teenagers,
From teens to matured adults,
Life gaves us a pace to taste it's freedom.
Empty pockets is now filling up,
Heart so cherishing, now is empty.
Mad about future indulgence,
Soon we gotta know that the juvenile youth was the priceless luxury.
Myriad of friends, now are few,
Race to become a champion,
Metamorphosed, chasing for promotion.
Life is directing us, Life is coaching us
No matter how old and veteran we become
We will still be someone's Daughter, someone's son, someone's soulmate, someone's forever friend��

@writersnetwork @mirakee @writerstolli @readwriteuniteSomewhere between
“10 toffees for 1 rupee” and
“1 toffee for 10 rupees”,
we grew up!
Somewhere between
“Ground mai aaja” and
“Online aaja”,
we grew up!
Somewhere between
“stealing chocolate from our sister” and “Buying chocolate for her children”,
we grew up!
Somewhere between
“Just five more mins Maa” and
“Pressing the snooze button”,
we grew up!
Somewhere between
“Crying out loud just to get what we want” and
“Holding our tears when we are broken inside”,
we grew up!
Somewhere between
“I want to grow up” and
“I want to be a child again”,
we grew up!
Somewhere between
“Lets meet and plan” and
“Lets plan and meet”,
we grew up!
Somewhere between
"Being afraid of our parents" and
"Praying for our parents"
we finally grew up
And as we grew up, we realize;
*How silently, our lives have changed.14 0

Age
Trapped in aging flesh
Body brittle
Cellophane skin
Time unkind
A full life
Seen so much
Tip toe through history
Memories and stories
All I have left
Pass on
Younger generation to learn.

Untold
I've been a scholar,
A writer, A teacher, An elder
In short an experienced soul
But sometimes I also do want
Hugs, love, kisses, affection, admiration
I want to be the innocent I was when I was born
Protected and loved, cared and Nourished.
Someone to hold me, vanish my demons
Sooth my desperate fears,
Help me grow, hold my hand and stand by my side.

Misconception of first child
Everyone believes that the first child is always preferred...
But the same didn't go with me☺
Born with thousands of aspirations and abundance of love...
Was first to my parents ..and to my maternal grandparents
Got love from everyone.. and no hate from anyone
And..slowly the pages of my life turned..
The one who was preferred first then..
Is now no more asked..
The one who made them happy then..
Is now no more their reason..
The one who had everyone's lap then..
Has no more a lap now..
The one who had everyone's shoulder then..
Has no more a shoulder now..
The one who had no one's grudge then..
Is now no more "not a grudge"material..
The one who was only in their mind then..
Is no more in their mind now..
The one who was never blamed then..
Is no more such now..
The one who was always supported then..
Is no more even held now ..
The one who was listened then when couldnot speak properly..
Is no more given a ear now..
The one who was always admired even on small winnings then..
Is no more admired now..
The one who was their "Somu" then..
Has now become their "Saumya" now..

It's always not that we should get learnings from the people who are elder than us...
We can learn from the people who are younger than us...
There is no shame in this... If you see shame on this then you will loose many things...

Aging
Impressionist sight
Weary and drained
Old bones splinter
Soul paper thin
The last one behind
Everyone has departed
Four white walls
Shadows my companions
Exchange stories with spirits
Doing all the talking
Till I'm no more
An orphan memory.0 0

Belive
What you believe in is a perception of your mind.
You always gets attracted to a gold because you see gold as a most superior element for yourself
Now what if that gold is not exactly gold and might be something else..
If you focus on gold then you believe its a superior and you'll miss the glory and beauty of the world
Similar is with the people's talk. If you believed in some of your elder or friends or anyone else then chances are you're gonna miss all the other things believing in just one thing
That might be costing you a lot

CRY
At childhood we cry loudly
To get what we love ❤️♥️
But, when we grow we cry silently
To forget what we love ...

Listen
When i was young
Im easily irritated with how older people talked
I thought they were just noisy people
Talking nonsense
But as i get older
I slowy understand why they always talked
Like they know everything.
Cause experience thought them
The real lesson of mistakes, failure and success
They know more than we do
So always listen and absorb everything that could make you better
Dont frown, or be frustrated
Life lessons are best learn through experience

I and she
I love to be messy ,she love to be organized...
I love to be harsh ,she love to be polite...
I m younger from her , she is elder from me ...
I m like a stars , she is like a moon...
I love beaches , she love snowfall
We both are different but, then also we both are together like a horizon

Sometimes being a Younger is Hardest thing,
Whatever Elders tell or Talk Rude to Others is Okay,
but when you(being a Younger)tell or Talk Rude to Others is Not Okay !!

@itsnidhikumari �� @branthan �� @keeraa �� @laughing_soul �� @essence_of_life �� @smilethatspeaks �� @evil_beauty_khyati �� @labyrinth_of_words �� @shaliya ��The cute slight stretch
Of the baby's lips
When his mother
Touches his head
The smile touching the eyes
On the just - addopted girl's face
Who for the first time in 10 years
Got her own brand new dress
The tears engulfed smile
On everyone's face
When a big operation
Finally saves a life
The toothless smile
On the old age home members
When someone comes
To spend time and bring joy in their life
SMILE
The essence of life.
