No angry, no criticism, no responsibility, no complaints. Always smile and always be content and happy is the way for fathers to be healthy and healthy. Due to medical development, it will become a lucky person if you are not careful. Lin Yan has a lot of attention to the nursing articles on the Internet. I am a solitary elderly person and need to be transformed every month, and I am a final person. Many people ask me why I don’t ask for someone to accompany and help me? I think I can still move at the moment and take care of myself without any worries.

Don't seek long-term poverty, but live with a smile on your face.

I don't expect long-term poverty. I just hope that every day I live, just be happy. I am most afraid of "dementia" and "disability". I don't want to live without respect.

There is a friend who has known for twenty years. He is the boss of a computer company. He starts to work every morning, goes back to eat at noon, goes back to the company after get off work, and goes back to the car for about fifteen minutes each time. One day after get off work, he opened for more than an hour and still couldn't find his way home. From then on, he needed a driver. Only then did I realize that he had already been ninety-one. Originally, he dressed in lace every day and treated people very politely. He didn't really think about it after a few months. The family asked him a special nurse in three shifts for him, and his two sons in the United States also returned to Taiwan to inherit his father's career. In front of him, he moved to live with his son. I feel happy for him, and with my wife around me, I wish him a better place.

Recalling my father, he died in less than a month due to a cold and pneumonia at the age of 97. Before my father passed away, he was very happy every day, and he played with his sluts. He had a very good brain muscles and even wrote letters to his uncle in American style.

My father taught the book until he was 89 years old, until my husband and I moved to Xizhi Mountain. Because sometimes I couldn't pick up and drop off my father who had finished teaching at 9:00 or 10:00 in the evening, I had to ask my father not to teach anymore. Later, my father joked that he had become an unemployed traveler. He has a classmate and a principal, and he still works every day at the age of 95. I regretted and took it upon myself, why did he stop teaching him at the beginning?

I heard that there is a restaurant in Chiayi that specializes in hiring seniors over 65 to work, so that they can once again have the opportunity to worship society and find their value. But if you retire at the age of 65 and travel around every day, you can do what you like, which is actually good.

I have a medical friend who travels around the golf club for almost three or four days at every ceremony. In addition to having a thorough understanding of the whole province, he also travels abroad, living freely and enjoying every day. He is a doctor. On the one hand, he has seen too many life and death, and he has done two or three major surgery, so he decided to cherish the moment. He is very open-minded, I can't do it, I'm very impressed. I also have some classmates who bring children at home and enjoy the joy of playing with santhemums.

Everyone has different blessings after old age.

The most important thing about long-term health is physical health, otherwise everything will be in vain. The luckiest thing is that there are children who can take care of them. Just like my department head, Mr. Long, who is 93 years old, he has very good hearing, but his eyes and legs have deteriorated. His daughter was very filial and helped him choose thousands of choices. Finally, she chose Christian foreign care and took care of him at the teacher's house. She also asked the rehabilitator to go home to do rehabilitation for the teacher. This year, the teacher called me and said it was full of enthusiasm and humorous. He told me that the rehabilitation teacher asked him to twist his butt every day. He really didn't understand, so he asked foreign guards to accompany him to do it. I said, "Teacher, be careful that foreigners will charge you for entertainment fees at the end of the month!" We both couldn't help laughing.

The teacher would go to the church near his home every time for a ceremony, and the church's mother often came to his house to recite news or "The Book of the Holy See" for him. I then remembered that I could link eight or nine articles I wrote in "Grandman Society" to the teacher for foreign care, and asked her to click the "Can I listen" audio file and play one article every day for the teacher to listen to. The first six of them were articles that did not record the audio when I started writing the column four years ago. I had to record them so that the teacher could hear them. I was very happy to do it.

My mother passed away at the age of 103. In the last few years, she was disabled and dementia, and she had to bear the pain of using oxygen tubes and inserting nasogastric tubes. I felt sorry for her and let her suffer. But we were together every day, hugging each other and singing, carrying oxygen machines that looked like suitcases, and going to play. She said this is "living for me, not suffering." And she is definitely my motivation to survive because I have the responsibility to take care of her.

As we are in our twilight years, how should we prepare for entering heaven? How can we make good use of our days in the world and let us reflect on how to increase our spirit, to prepare ourselves, and to die?

Confucius said: "At sixty, you are so sluggish, and at seventy, you are so sluggish, and you do whatever you want without breaking the rules." My father is the best example. His inner cultivation is too rich. He can laugh at any unheard, unpleasant, and unfair things, never get angry, criticize, be responsible, or complain. I always smile and feel content every day. I think that's his way of being healthy and healthy.

Thinking of reaching this state, I still have a long way to learn.
