Chapter 1080. The ship you were waiting for didn't arrive

The ship you were waiting for did not arrive Zhang Baotong compiled 2019.2.27

Recently, my father's heart attack recurred, and that's when he fell ill for the second time. I noticed that his illness was a little milder than before, because the doctors found that the repair function in his body was working. Because of this minor stroke, he has been feeling faint for the past two weeks. No one wants this kind of news from a loved one.

My father was 77 years old, and he was 78 years old in August. It's not unusual, and it's not even surprising that something like this happens. He was a skinny old man with high blood pressure, but he never participated in aerobic activities and outdoor activities, which can be very fatal for elderly people with coronary artery disease. So according to the doctor's diagnosis, he was lucky to survive this time. But the biggest headache for me now is not that he may die, but that it may be difficult for him to live well.

He is almost 78 years old, suffering from such a serious illness, but he is still working full-time. Because he was paying a loan for a house that didn't belong to him. It wasn't something he voluntarily wanted to do, but he had to do it. He had brothers, sons and grandsons, nephews and nephews, and some friends with him. Although they live in other places, they are all in the same state.

I've always wanted to get married soon, but I have to pay a lot of money for it. Of course, I have to pay for these expenses myself, but I can't help but wonder how much I hope that as a daughter, my parents can support me to ease my burden.

Frankly speaking, at his age, he can no longer continue to work so desperately. However, he has his own ideas, he wants to make himself richer and save more money for his retirement. He even wanted to travel the world and leave a large fortune for his children and grandchildren. He was sure that his wish would come true and that it would come true.

My father's situation was very bad, but not unique. In fact, situations like his abound almost everywhere in the United States. If you look at the financing of all groups of people, this is a very serious problem. Those men who suffer from heart disease are asking for donations to increase medical bills.

The problem was that my dad's ship had already entered the port. At the very least, this would eliminate his worries about money. Of course, it is now his physical condition that is the most worrying. And eliminating the worries about money is the best guarantee for him to alleviate his illness and recover quickly.

It seems that the ship has gone wrong and will sink at some point. This is the last glimmer of hope, hoping for good luck, otherwise, it is simply impossible to just wait silently for a miracle to happen. Add to this the solemn fact that, as the Belgian proverb goes, "When the ship you are waiting for fails, you can only send one more." ”

There's no denying it: one day we're all going to die. I'm going to die, you're going to die, and my dad is going to die of a heart attack. These are all facts. However, in the face of this reality, you can't help but ask yourself, "Have I achieved my goal in life?"

The answer to this question depends on the opportunity we choose or the opportunity we create for it. My boyfriend, Tony Robbins, said that people's fates are usually determined by three things: where your choices are gathered, your willingness to choose, and how you implement them according to your will. So, according to the extension of your mind, if you haven't decided to experience the whole life, then you are just sitting on the dock waiting for the ship that will never come, because the ship has not set sail at all.

But the good news is that you didn't do that. As social workers, we are very good at giving this advice to those passengers and our friends. But the truth is that those who are told don't do that. We do not dissuade any social worker from giving them the perfect job. So, everyone has to pay attention to themselves, because we all have our own dreams and aspirations. So, you need to know what to do to make sure your ship arrives safely at the dock by the ship's bells and whistles.

I have spoken to many social workers and know that everyone has big dreams and urgent needs like passengers waiting for a ship. But these dreams and needs are often associated with money. Access to money has become an important factor in achieving our dreams and getting what we need. I've always believed that our most glorious needs come from God. If you get this need, you gain the divine ability to fulfill your dreams. Nowadays, people have made it a sacred ability to acquire money. If you gain this divine ability, you will be able to build yourself a ship that is about to depart.

No promises will be made to anyone tomorrow. I am convinced of this. You will be equally convinced. The same goes for my father. It's easy to get caught up in everyday responsibilities, and the reality of life can leave you watching the sun set on the dock without knowing where the time has gone. You have to face your own death and the death of a loved one. This reminds us that life is fleeting, and that our lives can only be like this.

Thankfully, my father is still alive and I can come home this weekend to check on the elderly. Of course, I'm also going to go through some very formal occasions for some business matters, to get together with my classmates, and to have some feast of Our Lady. Who knows? We'll even go to the pier and see what's docked on the shore. And what about you? Are you still living peacefully and smoothly? How are you planning for your future life? But in any case, remember that the ship that returns is the ship that sent out first. If you're waiting for your ship to arrive, be sure to take the safe steps. I wish you all the best.
