Love your parents?

Today's moral lesson really struck me,
I mean,
We all know that we are supposed to take care of our parents when they get old,
But teacher's lecturing gave me a whole new perspectives.

I'm not really sure why,
But it goes like this.
Think about your parents taking care of you,
Feeding,
Playing,
Changing,
Bathing,
Teaching.
But when it's our turn to take care of our parents,
We think it's troublesome.

Sending them to old folks home?
If it's those irresponsible ones who just dump them there,
Is like dumping you in an orphanage.
If you say you will pick them up,
It's like sending you to those babysitters,
Which none of us would like.

Well,
There's a lot more to talk about on this topic,
But I just can't remember it all.
Just one more thing,
Even though I know all this,
I still can't find a way to stand my grandmother.

Trying to put myself into her shoes,
Understanding her,
Controlling my anger,
Being patient,
Doesn't help at all.

She's just like a small girl,
Trying to get attention and love,
But small girls don't complain and scold that much.
So hard to control myself,
She's is just so bleeping annoying @_@
"She old already, must give and take"
Easier said than done ._.

All I can do now,
Is to pray that my own parents won't become like my grandmother when they grow old.
Please Lord ._.
