I Don't want to become OLD!

I am Officially Afraid of getting OLD!
For the past two days I have been running around from the Manawal Location to the Amritsar Location making rounds with Gulshan Ji (My Senior- Social worker)-
Yesterday I was at the Manawal Location- I sat in the Male Ward and did some Counseling- and then today I sat with my group. I could not believe the imporvement they are making. Since Yesterday I was in the Manawal Location I could not meet with my Group- and Today they were asking me why I didn't come today. These women- some are Mentally retarded- some in old age. I will write more about my group tomo.
The reason I am afraid of growing old- well today Again I went to Manawal With Dr.Neki ( A VERY Noble Doctor who spends his time with Pingalwara patients- Dr. Neki is a very simple man, he does not own a car or motor cycle-he goes from one hospital to another by Cycle!)
today we went to the Manawal Location- and made rounds of patients- I saw many patients who were just left in Pingalwara to ROT by their families- rich families! ofcourse many of the patients have been found on the streets- etc..
I cannot even put into words what I have seen today- I just wish and pray to god to take me into his arms once I am unable to care for myself and family. I DO NOT WANT TO BE ALONE- or UNABLE to care for myself! If you think what I am saying is FOOLISH- THEN PLEASE COME TO AMRITSAR- and VISIT PINGALWARA- your views on LIFE will totally change. You will become a different PERSON!!!
I know that Inside I AM CHANGING.... I am becoming very FEARFUL of GOD's Capabilities!
So please my Friend- HELP OTHERS in NEED- GOD IS WATCHING US ALL!!

Its Time for me to sleep now- I wake up at 6am to Shower,then I go to Golden Temple to SAY THANK YOU to god for what he has given me in life- and For my Family, Friends, and my patients....then I am off to work!
Tomo I am visiting 3 Hospitals in Amritsar in the Mental Wards! to make rounds with Gulshan Ji and Dr. Neki.
So GOOD NIGHT my Friends!

You dont want to grow old, cause u r afraid of being left alone and not being able to take care. its a valid fear. but this also teaches us , that we should always help and take care of our elders and ppl in need, cause there will be a day , when we will be in their position, old and helpless. These are some values everyone should learn, to help elders, parents, and everyone in need. This is our religion, this is our duty !..
god bless u.. u dont know how many blessings u r getting from these ppl. and once again u have a big heart.. :) i am proud of you.

I am scared! Yes I agree Aman- We do have to care for our elders... You know- Today just watching these people- who are laying on the floor, drooling, unable to even lift their head to drink water- I started to Cry. I couldn't even think for a sigle Moment- that I will ever be in this state- I DON'T WANT TO BE! I Hope that i am getting blessings- but thats not why I am doing this- I am doing this because of Humanity! I am doing this out of the LOVE in my heart- which has been given to me by Waheguru ji. Aman I am not only doing all this for myself- I am not so selfish- I pray every single day and go to Gurdwara every day and pray for our life together- for the happiness of my family- for the wellbeing of my patients and even World Peace- I know its sounds funny- world peace! GOD BLESS THIS WORLD- I feel sad when I see the world we are living in! God Creates good and bad, he also creates health and sick people= I AM HEALTH- and the SICK need people like us.
The images I see daily- Keep me awake at nights- WAHEGURU JI= HELP the people of this world! :)
GOOD NITE
Thank you for ALL YOUR SUPPORT AMAN- Without your support i would not be able to do this...thank you for being he most understanding husband ever.... nazar na lagay! THANK YOU!

Rubina, dear you are absolutely right, the world which is around us is not the real world we live in its where you are, I mean it from my heart that what your are doing there and what you have done for them from past several days it awesome and unbelievable . I'm proud to be known as your friend and will be there for you. Even for the rest of human in this world who need my help or support. You are a one brave girl who is there to help those who really in-need of our assist and support. Don’t felt alone or cry, its just a fear you have in your heart that made you think that way but trust me with those blessings and prayers you have got from these peoples are countless. And WAHEGURU JI (GOD) will always be there to listen your asking and wishes, You, Amaan and your whole family will always be showered with blessing and love from WAHEGURU JI (GOD) every day and every night & every minutes of your life . Bless you my dear!

Rubina Bhabhi, Life is really amazing. I was reading all the posts and I started crying. Yes I was feeling bad about those people but as well as I'm feeling bad about us. We never ever thank god for whatever he has given us. We always crib. If we get a small car, we want a big one and our wants are unlimited. Think about those people who never ever get a chance to sit in the car even. Whatever you are doing is amazing. Everyone can't do it. I really salute you for doing such a wonder work in your life. People should take inspiration from you.

Fariha and Veenu- Thanx soooo MUCH for all your support and blessings. I don't feel proud of myself- infact I feel like this is my duty- if not me, then who? I feel that its my job - Its humanity. Waise Veenu your right- thes people dont have the luxaries we have- but its not even about cars/big houses/money/or even nice clothes- these women just want good food to eat, clean clothes, activities, and interaction. they are happy to be off the streets. Its amazing how their quality of life is so much more imporved then someone from on the streets. Watch Slumdog Mil- That really shows true India- and How children are sold to brothels, made handicap for the sake of a few rupees-
We should all fear god... thats all i have to say.
Take care everyone :)
