Is Old Age Sad?

The answer is positive. Old is indeed sad and helpless. But this is the law of nature. You have to accept it whether you like it or not. This cycle applies to all living creatures in the world.
Between human to human, there is the difference of noble and low, rich and poor, race discrimination. In the human world, human is not equal. To this we must know very clearly and accept it as reality.
But under the law of nature, human is equal. When time comes, whether you are rich or poor, noble or low, you have to leave the world and go the heaven. Your glory is no more glory, your dirty deeds is no more dirty. Everything is gone with the wind. Your body shall be the food of the worm underground. What you can remain is only your skull which, to the grave digger, may be the skull of president or a thief.
Our golden time depends on our health. Without health, we shall not live. But health belongs to the youth or middle-aged people. As to old people health will leave them slowly and silently, their energy downwards gradually. It is your preparation to face your old age when the day does come.
