When you cannot catch up with world speed.

Last Sunday, I have been asked to taking care my grand mom.
It is easy job, just sit with her, talk with her and find something for her to eat when she hungry.
I think I would be nice if I bring many DVDs and watching together with her.
I’m enjoy my movies but she seems to be lost in space. She found that it is not fun and keep looking outside the door waiting for familiar faces to come back.
She keeps looking and asking questions from time to time when they gonna back.
Anyway, I can draw her interest by asking her telling her story and let her flash back to her impression events in the past.
At last, my brother comes back from his concert around 8:30pm at night and I ask her to take shower and go for sleep.
Then I walk back home.
When I walk back I keep thinking what can attract her attention and what can entertain her from boredom feeling.
She doesn’t seems fun when she watch movie because the story now is too complicate for her to understand.
She will not enjoy playing game or listening to music because both of these activities need to involve with high tech device which too complicated for her.
She will not appreciate with my experience sharing that I shared to her because she cannot catch up with lifestyle.
She cannot cook which she can do best since she doesn’t strong enough to shop at wet market for ingredients and her eyes are not as good as before.
All of the above cause from missing to catch up with the speed of the world.
I feel depress when thinking of her and looking back to myself and my wife.
These situation may haunted me when I’m getting old. It does not a joke. Although, I’m working in IT field. It doesn’t guarantee that I can catch up with the world speed in the future. Who know? In the future at my grand son generation, they may control all devices with bio-electric sensors which need to learn from school or all instructions, user manual coding in genetic 4th based language.
The only way to survive is to catch up with the speed of the world. I think I can if I try. But my wife, I quite worried. If I die before her, she will fall in the the same cycle with my grand mom.
