The wisdom of our elders was monumental and their maturity is almost impossible for us to emulate...
Their faith in God was based on absolute trust.. They knew by instinct and faith that all that is nice and tolerable is just a gift, or even a lease from the Master and we are incapable of bargaining or complaining in any way.. He is free to take away anything from anyone of us without any warning or notice.. But He is so kind and merciful.. Even when ostensibly the worst things like departure of a loved one occurs, we would see that the Master never takes away or inundates everything.. many Graces are left behind..
Death or such decisive happenings are unavoidable for Him to maintain justice and order... But He wields the sword with the utmost compassion and moderation possible..
This is what the paatti means by ithode poche.. (ഇതോടെ പോച്ചേ இதோடு போச்சே)
I am sure we can understand this fact in its true context as we pass through both heartening and heart-breaking episodes in our lives ,we gain lessons of life through the years , and then look back..
this is one great blessing of old age..
