Living independently:

There are many people and couples living in this world who thinks that they do not need any

assistance and help from anybody, an individual or any aging service provider. The reason is

that they might think that they are sufficient for each other and can live peacefully with the

support of one another. Sometimes this can go successful but not all the times because age is a

factor that cannot be ignored and denied and at some point of life you may need someone to

lean on and share your things with the family and others other than your partner. It is an

integral part of living. This happens not only with the couples but also with an individuals but it

is really very important to keep an eye or to check these type of people very occasionally

because life is very uncertain and anything can happen anytime so the people who offers them

the support or the aging service providers must do something through which they can be

monitored every then and while to be safe from any kind of tragedy, it can be of any type.

Offering help is a great thing but it also happens sometimes that some people clearly denies

taking help maybe they feel that they would lose their respect and integrity by this way but

there are different ways through which help can be offered to those people who needs it but

hesitates to take any help. Spending time with these sort of people though an elderly couple or

an individual person is a great thing that can be done because communication is a key to many

things, when you try to communicate with people and you tends to know about someone’s well

being it helps you to know more about their problems and through this things can be sorted

somehow because you know what they actually want and need.

If I talk about my personal experiences so yes, I have seen few couples and also few individuals

who thinks that they are sufficient for themselves and doesn’t need any help from anybody, but
I have also seen some of them living miserably due to loneliness as they pretends to be okay in

front of others and they doesn’t want others to be with them or part of their lives but

loneliness is not a very good thing that would benefit you for a long time. But the thing which I

have learnt in this period of my life is that we should not leave anybody to live a miserable life

just because they are hesitant. Everyone is different and if one person doesn’t match your

standards doesn’t mean that they are not good and people should not be judged on that, we

need to understand people, their problems and try our best to provide them with the solutions

or things that they will be needing to live a healthy and good life though it is a shoulder to cry

on or someone to share a drink with.
