01
Gradually, gradually, our batch of 70s, have reached the age of fifty.Reaching fifty is a time to understand one's fate. At such an age, many things, we have learned to let go; and some people, we will suddenly realize:It turns out that they have already run out of our fate, especially the following four people, and we couldn't help but sigh when we wrote this.

02
The first person: Deceased relatives.
Reaching fifty, we have already started to age.At this time, some of our relatives and friends have aged, perhaps one day, some of our relatives and friends, or even our parents, will suddenly leave us. When deeply loved by a relative, suddenly leaves us, especially our parents, suddenly leave us, that kind of never seeing relatives' sadness, often will make us fall into prolonged pain. When one day, we suddenly see the photo of our relatives, we will suddenly realize, it turns out, we and this deceased relative, have run out of fate in the human world.That sadness, that disappointment, may be that many people will feel deeply ingrained.
03
The second person: Wine and food friends.
Reaching fifty, our bodies are no longer as good as before.As our physical functions decline, we suddenly find that we can no longer handle large feasts and banquets. Perhaps, when we were young, for our ideals, for our careers, we or not, have to participate in some invitations. In some banquets and dinners, we also met many wine and food friends. These friends, naturally, are also washed away. When we reach fifty, we have already known 'the road is long and horses know their strength, time reveals people's hearts'.So, those who don't have much common language with us, we gradually less to come, or even break up.
When we meet on the road, the picture of once laughing and chatting on the wine table, will no longer be.
And this is actually a 'fate run out' of a wine table, reaching fifty, we will accept it calmly.
04The third person: Gradually departing colleagues.Reaching fifty, we have worked in the unit for many years, some colleagues have worked with us for many years.
One day, one of our colleagues suddenly retired, when we see their backs gradually disappear from the doorway of the unit, we realize that we and this colleague have gradually drifted apart. Perhaps it's the distance of family; perhaps it's the regret of never being able to meet again, etc., will make us feel that we and this colleague have run out of fate. Together laughing and joking, or jointly fighting, pictures are no longer.
Perhaps this is the feeling of 'people leave tea cold'. When we retire, we will encounter such a feeling, we will accept it calmly.
05The fourth person: Former lovers.Reaching fifty, we have walked through decades of wind and rain with our loved ones.

It is said that 'husband and wife grow old together, companion in old age'. When we gradually age, our loved ones also age. At this time, mutual dependence and support is the most important thing. Perhaps, when we were young, we would still think of our former lovers, some even had contact.
But now, we are old, we and our loved ones have supported each other until old age.
