What is the greatest blessing after turning sixty? Isn't it to be surrounded by children and grandchildren during meals, with laughter and joy at the dining table? Those elderly people who don't often contact their children and whose families are always in conflict, even if they live in big houses, can't feel truly at ease in their hearts. In contrast, as long as the family is harmonious, with children occasionally coming to visit and grandchildren bustling around, it's the happiest moment in the world.
Of course, family harmony also relies on our efforts and wisdom. Understanding tolerance, knowing how to share the burdens of the next generation, refraining from speaking too much or interfering too much, and taking a step back can bring even more warmth. Some elderly people, under the guise of "for your own good," criticize their children's lives, inadvertently increasing the burdens on both sides. On the other hand, those who know how to loosen their grip are more likely to be remembered and respected by their children.
Many old friends will sigh: When you reach sixty, seeing your children living happily and joyfully is the greatest satisfaction. Instead of thinking every day about how to "discipline," it's better to learn to appreciate and bless, enjoy our own lives, and create a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere at home.
