"My 70th Birthday" ..........A Story or A Reality ????

 

    It was 1.30 am and still, no one came back home. Already it became very late but still, Mr. Bruce was waiting for his family members for a long time. another hour passed and When no one came he got disappointed and decided to sleep.

    Mr. Bruce was very happy today but felt very disappointed because of his family members. after thinking so much about something he went to sleep. Suddenly he woke up from sleep and heard so much noise from outside. when he checked the time it was 4 o'clock. he went out to check regarding the sound and he saw there were many people who came to his house along with his family members.

    It was looking like Mr. Bruce's family and other people were doing a party and they were shouting. after seeing the outside scenario Mr. Bruce became very sad and went to his room. 

     As Soon As Mr. Bruce came to his room he started crying. Surely there was something that hurts Mr. Bruce at that time. After some time the outside sound stopped and it became morning. 

    When Mr. Bruce woke up he just went out to meet his family members but there was No One. For many days Mr. Bruce was not able to meet his family members. There was something running in his mind but he was not able to speak with anyone for so many days and because of all this, Mr. Bruce was looking very disappointed and sad.

    Days were passing and Mr. Bruce was feeling helpless. The empty house was making him alone day by day. Certainly, life became very hard to spend for him. 

    One evening Mr. Bruce had switched off all lights and just sat on the floor. after some time the door open and Mr. Bruce's family entered inside. as soon as Mr. Bruce's family switched on the light they got surprised after seeing the house and Mr. Bruce. The entire house was decorated and Mr. Bruce was sitting in one corner with cake in front of him. It was really looking strange at that moment as no one was knowing the reason behind it. 

    One of the members of the family asked Mr. Bruce Dad What is all this?. Mr. Bruce hadn't given any reply and he remains silent and was just staring at the cake. Again another member asked Mr. Bruce, "Whose birthday today grandpa?" Still, there was no reply from Mr. Bruce.

    Now it was annoying for Mr. Bruce's family as Mr. Bruce was not replying to them.  After some time when Mr. Bruce's family didn't get any reply from Mr. Bruce, they just ignored him and when they about to leave from there Mr. Bruce started crying heavily and just put a word "Thank you all" 

    Everyone was shocked and couldn't able to understand what was happening there. Mr. Bruce's family went near him and again started asking Dad, what happened? is it everything ok with you? Why you are crying? for what reason you are saying thank you? while delivering all this question no one realized that Mr. Bruce was not breathing anymore. as soon as someone touched him he fell down. by seeing Mr. Bruce like that all family members got boggled and all were looking at each other.

    Mr. Bruce was no more and his family got a huge shock. without saying the reason for his cry Mr. Bruce was already left and threw his family in confusion. 

    In the above Story, Mr. Bruce had left a note for all of us ...

My all dear friends and family,

    I know my sudden demise will put a lot of questions in your mind. Please forgive me for everything as I never wanted to go like this from this planet but I had left with no choice as there were many things that were hurting me from inside. Day by day I was feeling alone from inside. I just don't want to blame anyone for my situation. 

    Since I was getting older day by day, many of my family members or relatives were started avoiding me. there was no one who can talk with me, who can play with me. there was no one left with whom I could share my feelings, my likes & dislikes. every day became very boring & disappointing for me as I was feeling disconnected from everything.  

    One day I realized that when I was young everyone was so supportive but when I started getting older the same people who supported me before now they started avoiding me. day by day I was feeling helpless & sad. I never expected that getting older will cost me this much.

    I know my words are so painful but believe me It is more painful when you realize you are now not that important for your family members like before. 

    I wish no one should come in this type of situation which I faced. So I request everyone, please do talk with old members of your family, try to understand their feelings, their likes & dislikes, make them happy by sharing your & their thoughts because you are the one with whom they can share their problems & their feelings.

    "Always remember getting older is really not that painful until you stop supporting older people".

    In the end, I just want to apologize for everything. Please forgive me if I have hurted anyone who read my note.

    One more "the day I died it was my 70th birthday"
