That day was Thursday and our class finished at 1040 a. m. at first we went station road by our varsity bus. thence we went to Hotapara, Gazipur by public transport. Then we went to Bishia Kuribari Monipur by auto-rickshaw. After 30 min we reached to the old age home. Then we talked with gatekeeper for permission to enter into the old age home. They took us to the office of caretaker and told to posture there until he came.After half an hour the caretaker came to the office and asked what we want, where we from.

After requesting a lot, he permitted us to visit the old age home but not allowed to talk with any old people, also not allowed to take any p icture. After that, he sent a guard with us.We really become very surprised to see the whole area. Its really very large. The total Land area is 24 acres. Its filled with green trees.

Over all the whole campus is nicely maintained by The Givency Group. Their Old age home project is really a non- profitable, helpful project for our general people. For visiting again the campus & talk with old persons, we need p ermission of the Authority. For that reason, we first approve an application by our course instructor & went to the main office of old home (sector-9, Uttara) for desire permission. A format of that application is attached with this main documentAfter getting permission, we went there 2ndtime, in the same way. After reach there, we went to the caretakers room. We pose them the application & request him to give us a chance for talking with the old people who are interested. By seeing the permission paper, He gave a chance to entering there but not allowed taking any mobile or camera. We agreed him and leave the camera and mobile. In that day we got two hours to stay with the old people. We all members enjoyed that day a lot. Some old men and women were so happy to see us. But the guard didnt give us the chance to talk with everyone.They knew who are interested and who are not interested to talk with us. We talk with them who are interested to talk. In this day some old men and wom en told us to go again to meet with them. Fillings on their family absence Almost all the people, who live in the old age home, have a family. They have children, they have grandchildren. But they are living here without their any of family members. Though they are here but they think about their family every moment. Though their family members are not careful about them, but they wish a happy life for their family. They also pray for their family.They always miss them all. They think if they are with their family. A conversation between an old char and our group member Angkan kanti paul An old woman called Angkan near her with smiley face Angkan As-salamualykum. Woman oalaikum-assalam, who are you? & What do you want? Angkan I am Ankan, I want to know about you. I am here to see you, for outlay a few(prenominal) unforgettable times with you. Have you few times for me? Woman Im fine. I have a grandson as like as you. Angkan Im also your grandson. Woman No. Because after leave me here he never come back for see me. But you come. Where is my grandson?He doesnt come to me and he doesnt hug me anymore. After this conversation the old woman started to cry and went inside the room. Refreshment for them On that day we got few times for spending with them. We did something for their mind refreshment. There was a few man and woman sitting beside garden, we joined with them. We asked about their health. After some time our one guest call a song. They were happy with us. We walked some area with them. On the way they said some story of their life. After telling story of their life they became upset. When we understood that we told some jokes of our varsity life.We dont know when we took place in their mind, when we told we have to go right now, they became upset and told us to come again to meet them. We all became also upset for them. They told us some sort story of their life. One Story of a woman given below One old woman told as about her life story, how she cam e there. She had one son and one daughter. Her husband was a govt. employer. After her husband died she reared her son and daughter. She gave her daughter marry. Her son got a blood in privet farm. Then her son got marry. After half a year her sons wife started to rude with her.One day her son came to her and told her that he depart go outside with her for visiting a park. She was so happy. She got ready and started journey with her son. Her son brought her here. It is like a nice park so she didnt understood. One time her son told her to seat in the park, and told that he is going for few moments, he will be back. But he didnt back. Even he never met with his mother again. What we have learned from them? We learn from them that in the last symbolize of life they are passing their time with full of sorrows, because they are the leave out person of their family. For this reason, they suffer in the long run.Only they know, living without family, how much painful. We also learn th at we do not separate our mother, father, grandmother, grandfather in the last stage of life, because they reared us with love. We will not send them to old age home. We try to feel there sorrows by standing on their present condition & promised us by ourselves that we never ever leave our parents alone in old home. We stay with our parents till their last breath. Limitations of our Project For completing our project we face few obstacles & there also have few limitations, because in Old home, The Authority doesnt permit us to talk freely with older.In old home, members are not living happily, if we asked them emotional questions, they become sad. For that reason, we try to talk with them very smartly but not freely. Though Authority gives them all facilities, they also have some limitations. Its a institution not home, & Older are not fully satisfied with this types of facilities. But maintaining good quality of food & shelter they cant improved the quality for making it best. Abst racted Actually no one become happy in his life. But old people who lived in old home are really suffer a lot at their last stage of life.There life is full with sorrows & the pain for not getting happiness. Though their relatives leave them alone, they always pray for their good wish. In their last stage of life they only want to see their lovely childs face for last time. Its really shame for us that, we cant take those persons responsibilities by whom, we came in this beautiful world. They all live here together like family, but this is not their real family. Actually without children they spend their life not happily. They dont want to live long, they only want a happy Ending of their life.
