We humans go through several stages in our life.
It is very easy to use animal analogy.
1. Dog stage
This is the stage from birth to 35 years.
We have no control of our life and tend to do what others expect from us to do.
Yes to parents
Yes to teachers
Yes to the employer
Yes to ones spouse and many more.
2. Donkey Stage
This goes on for another 35 years.
24/7 work schedule and no sleep or rest.
This is where Peter Principle working overtime.
One cannot go up the ladder but stagnate in one position at home and at work.
One is made to be important and hence doing the donkey work for others.
3. Bird Stage
This a is very short period of about 10 years.
One is retired and free to do what one wishes.
This is the time people start writing books and try to show the wisdom to other but nobody cares that you exist.
4. Bat Stage
Dementia sets in at this stage.
One is over 80 and your body and mind fail on daily basis.
One hangs on to the basic instincts.
One grabs from walking stick to the dializer to the ventilator to the care giver.
One is a vegetable on practical terms.
One does not know how to say Good Bye and bid farewell to this existence.
The biggest problem is they become politicians and want to become Word Leaders.
A good example is Donald Trump.
Dementia that sets in at this stage won't let them realize that they are "Global Pain Producers".
Like a bat in "Resting Stage" they see everything in this world "Upside Down".
