Birth, aging, illness, and death are the natural order of things, and no one can stop them. The only thing we can do is cherish the present moment, spend time with our loved ones, and not wait until we lose them to regret it—then it will be too late! This applies to both humans and animals; cherish every moment!
On June 20th in Dalian, Liaoning, a netizen shared a story about their dog. They've had it for over ten years, and the dog is now 15 years old. At that age, it's considered a senior dog, so many of its bodily functions are declining. It has several health issues, including mild dementia, occasional incontinence, hearing loss, blurred vision, and a staggering gait. However, the netizen hasn't given up on it. Instead, they document its daily life, wanting to accompany it through its final days.
Every time netizens see it fall, they feel incredibly sorry for it. It's as if it wants to go back to its bed but can't get in; it falls, gets up, and sits there for a long time to recover! Now its condition is getting worse; it doesn't even know when its owner comes home, and doesn't respond to being called for ages! The only hope now is for the dog to enjoy its later years in peace, to spend as much time as possible with it, so that it doesn't have any regrets, and so that neither it nor the owner will have any regrets!
