I believe in karma, so meaning what comes around goes around. And thus I pretty much see life as a cycle also. All the natural cycles that seem to go on without fail, like life and death?

It happens in our life journey also. Remember how when we were just born, we cannot feed, clean and move about on our own? We have to rely on our parents to do all of it, without failing.

But once parents come to a time when they cannot feed, clean or move about by themselves, why does it become so hard to do all of it for them without failing or pushing it around?

It is just saddening to see elderly being left to fend for themselves just because their children are too busy with work or other commitments. I will constantly remind myself so that it doesnt happen to my parents.

Trust on the parents side towards their children, it is a risk they have to take no matter what. Not much of a choice to speak of actually. Sometimes, people get lucky with karma; other times, people just have to suck it up right?
