In today's era of talking about death, many people can't really face the problem of life and deathIt is considered an unlucky topic, so when sending blessings to the elderly,People often say that they live a long life, they are as blessed as the East China Sea, and their longevity is better than that of Nanshan.
This seems to be a tradition, in ancient times, people would also want to live a long life, Qin Shi Huang, who sat on the world, has been seeking the elixir of immortalityModern people also attach great importance to health preservation, everyone wants to live a long life, but will people who really live a long life be happy?
In Indonesia, there is a centenarian named Sodimiyo who died at the age of 146, leaving behind his wife, children, friends, and even his grandson, and whenever someone asks him what his greatest wish is, he will say "die".
So, when he was 146 years old, he fell ill and refused**, and even went on a hunger strike to meet deathLet's walk into the story of this centenarian!
Sodimiyo was born in 1870 on a small island in Indonesia, to a large family with a modest life.
Since Sodimiyo was born, the whole family has lived a life of eating without the next meal, and the family fishes for a living, but still lives such a tight life.
Just because Indonesia was a Dutch colony at that time, the superior colonizers exploited it layer by layer, and looted the money earned by their ordinary people for various reasons.
The people are living a life of miseryWhen Sodimiyo was older, he joined the family fishing to relieve the pressure on his family.
But no matter how much fish you catch, you can't make any money, because the country has invaders, and no amount of money you make will fall into your pocket.
As his mind matured, Sodimiyo gradually understood this truth, and one dayHe took the initiative to tell his parents that he wanted to join the army to fight, be a patriotic soldier, and run away all the invaders, parents think that the child is still young and act impulsively.
But Sodimillo was very firm, and his parents hesitated.
In the world, no parent wants to let their children go to war, but if everyone retreats, such days will never endSeeing their son so determined, Sodimillo's parents gritted their teeth and agreed to their son's request.
In this way, the young and strong Sodimiyo successfully entered the battlefield.
Every war was a life and death, and Sodimiyo participated in almost every war against the Dutch colonistsAlthough he was already scarred, Sodimiyo, who was blessed with great fortune, was able to escape death every time.
Watching his comrades-in-arms and friends fall one by one, Sodimiyo turned his anger into strength and fought fiercely on the battlefield, resolutely repelling the invaders.
Sodimiyo has repeatedly performed miraculous feats, but it's a pity that he is getting older day by dayThe perennial war of resistance also made the body scarred, and it was not suitable to go to the battlefield again, so he returned home.
As a local veteran hero, Sodimiyo is not a small celebrity, the first thing he did when he returned home, his parents arranged a blind date for him.
In the time that followed, Sodimiyo completed his mission to the country, ran his own small family, married harmoniously, raised eyebrows, and soon gave birth to several lovely children, and life was also smooth.
In 1945, the Netherlands surrendered and the country was formedSodimiyo witnessed this great moment, he burst into tears, was full of emotion, and silently prayed in his heart, long live the country, and hope that the future will be a good day.
But to Sodimiyo's sadness, he and his first wife had a deep relationship, but the other party died of illness not long after.
A few years later, Sodimiyo married his second wife, and he hoped to grow old with her this time, the second wife is also a gentle and good wife, and the two also gave birth to children after marriage, and life goes on like this.
But God does not fulfill people's wishesSodimiyo's second wife soon died, leaving Sodimiyo devastated and feeling a great loneliness.
He was advised not to marry again, everyone has their own fate, and maybe Sodimiyo's fate is destined to be lonelyThis sentence angered Sodimiyo, who did not like solitude and did not believe in fate, so he took a third wife.
But God really made a joke on Sodimiyo,A few years later, the third wife died, and Sodimiyo married the fourth.
After he turned seventy, his fourth wife died, and he was still alive and wellSodimiyo was disheartened, and at this age, he was no longer obsessed with continuing to marry and was ready to live alone.
At this time,Sodimyo doesn't think he will live for a few years, because the average life expectancy of the elderly in Indonesia is about 70 yearsSodimiyo's parents had long since died, and after giving his parents a pension, he felt that he was not far from death, but Sodimiyo also discovered a strange thing.
He had been on the battlefield when he was young, and his body had already become scarred, so it stands to reason that he should be sick or too weak to walk at his age.
However, Sodimiyo's health is quite healthy, in stark contrast to the old people of the same age in the village, he can run and jump, and his appetite is not bad.
So the people in the village said to Sodimiyo that this was a blessing from God, because when he was young, he went to battle and fought off the enemy, and he was a great hero, and God was giving back to the hero in this way.
In this way, Sodimiyo guarded this lonely day for another few decadesHe waited for death almost every day, but it was as if death had forgotten him.
Originally, there were several old people of the same age in the villageThey would gather and chat when they had nothing to do, but the old men slowly passed away one by one, leaving Sodimiyyo alone to live.
Although Sodimiyo has many brothers and sisters, at the age of 100, he is the only one who survivesEven the youngest brother in the family was sent away by Sodimiyo himself.
Watching his wife, parents, siblings, and siblings leave him one by one, no one can understand the pain in Sodimiyo's heart.
People live in the world, birth, old age, sickness and death are just the norm, although everyone understands the truth, but the saddest thing is life and death. The pain of watching relatives and friends leave one by one, and being powerless.
It is often the people who are left behind who are the most painful, they have to endure loneliness and loneliness, and continue to fight with the world with the longing for their relatives and friends.
So Sodimiyo always said, let them wait, and come right awayBut year after year passed, Sodimiyo was still a healthy old man, and death seemed to have forgotten him, but this was not what Sodimiyo wanted to see. 、
At the age of 100, Sodimiyo has become the longest-lived person in the village, and in this era of average lifespan of 70, Sodimiyo has become a miracle, there are no peers around him, and the only people who can accompany Sodimi every day to relieve his boredom are a group of children who want to listen to his stories.
Sodimiyo has many children and grandchildren, and they like to gather around his grandfather and listen to his stories from the past, and sometimes Sodimiyo looks at the state of being full of children and grandchildren in front of him, and thinks that it is not bad.
He likes to sit on a small bench in front of the yard on a sunny afternoonTell these innocent-looking grandchildren stories of their time, stories about how he went into battle to kill the enemy.
The days were long, but there weren't many stories, so Sodimiyo had to tell them over and over againThe grandchildren listened over and over again.
These stories have been firmly imprinted in their minds and have grown up with themThe grandchildren have grown up and will no longer lie next to their grandfather and beg him to tell stories, and Sodimiyo, who is more than a hundred years old, has returned to a state of loneliness.
When he reached his 120sSeveral children have passed away, and there is nothing more painful in the world than a white-haired person sending a black-haired person.
Although in this era without war, Sodimiyo's children all died of natural causes, but he was still reluctant to bear to see such a picture.
By this time, Sodimiyo had become a legendary old man in the villageThere were quite a few reporters who came to interview him, and they thought Sodimiyo was happy.
So he asked Sodimiyo what the secret wasSodimillo said that he didn't know, and it would be nice if he also knew what the secret of longevity was, so that at least he could choose not to live longer.
The reporter asked him, ".What do you most want to do at your age? "Death".No one knows why Sodimiyo made such an answer, but such a reply made many grandchildren feel ashamed.
There were so many of them that they couldn't take care of their grandfather, but Sodimillo said it wasn't their problem.
It is said that there is no filial son in front of the bed for a long time, although Sodimiyo is healthy and has never been sick, but the age difference between him and his grandchildren is too oldCoupled with the fact that he has been disconnected from this rapidly developing society, the two generations have no superfluous common language, and all that can accompany him is loneliness and loneliness.
At the age of 122, Sodimiyo suffered a serious myocardial infarction, and at that moment, he clearly tasted the taste of dyingBut with Sodimiyo came not fear, but relief
He finally realizes that he is dying and can go to his family to be reunited. onIt was Sodimiyo who took a breath of relief and began to arrange the funeral, and actively mobilized his grandchildren to buy a coffin for himself, and also planned the burial site himself.
But what he didn't expect was that the illness came like a mountain, but it was better to get sick than to take a thread, and he was soon **.
Sodimiyo was disappointed, but even more sad for himAfter this serious illness, all aspects of his physical function declined, and he needed his children and grandchildren to wait at his bedside.
This state of life is not as good as beforeHe didn't want to trouble his children and grandchildren, but he couldn't do anything about it, and more than 20 years of such a day passed.
By the time Sodimy was about 140 years old,There was a grandson who died, and everyone kept it a secret from Sodimiyo, not wanting the old man to know about such a thing.
But paper can't hold the fire, and Sodimiyo still knows, he broke down and cried, his will to survive has been low to the extreme, and he is looking forward to the arrival of death almost every day.
In 2016, Sodimiyo was 146 years old this year, and his family prepared a big birthday ceremony for himBut this year, Sodimir's wish was that death would come to him.
Soon after, he had another serious illness, and the children took him to the hospitalThis time, however, Sodimiyo grabbed them by the hand and refused to comply, demanding that he wait for his death.
The children hid their faces and wept, but they also knew the pain in their grandfather's heart, so they agreed to his requestAt the same time, Sodimiyo, who gave up **, began to eat or drink, and waited for death to come quickly by fasting.
In this way, Sodimiyo finally passed away as he wished, and the story of such a long-lived old man was handed down.
Life in the world, everyone pursues different things, the quality of life is more important than the length of life, I hope everyone can cherish life, cherish time!
