Older people are made weaker by Providence for a certain reason

 Why Older People Are Weaker 

Why did Providence decide to make older people weaker than the younger? Who can tell? Perhaps none. But one can speculate, guess, conjecture or simply delve into the unknown. The reason could be that as we grow we find employment (a source of power) or we find a family which empowers us through marriage. As we become powerful we start getting corrupted because power does corrupt. With more age we become wealthier or senior in office, at home or wherever we have got firmly entrenched. Of course we can become worse with age; angrier, harsher, more rigid and more dictatorial. The head of an institution may want to trouble people by simply not signing papers or a sadistic officer can make his people run around uselessly. We can become a nuisance for those around us. Providence then has to find ways of controlling matters. It gives us illness of one kind or another and makes sure our physical strength is reduced so that we do not end up destroying everyone around us with our growing power and authority. Thus as we get more empowered by age we continue to lose physical or bodily power till it becomes necessary for us to leave this world and begin life anew elsewhere, in heaven or hell depending on how well or ill we employed our days of empowerment.
