Last June 4, Madonna's father, Silvio Ciccone, turned 94 years old surrounded by his loved ones. On the occasion of the celebration, the American artist took advantage of the date to an image with her father on her official Instagram profile, where she has almost 20 million followers.

In the video shared by Madonna, in which father and daughter can be seen in front of a cake, as well as other images, the artist congratulates Silvio Ciccone and launches an emotional reflection on old age, as well as praising the elderly.

"Silvio Ciccone, 94 years old and still going strong. He has survived many wars and losses in his life, and still retains a sense of humor and a strong desire to get out of bed every morning and make the most of the day. Whenever my father is asked when he will retire, his answer is the same: 'I'm going to keep going until I collapse!'" reads the post shared by the artist.

In addition to congratulating her father and praising his figure, Madonna has launched an emotional reflection on old age: "It's a shame that we don't live in a world that celebrates the knowledge, experience and wisdom that we can only learn from our elders, who have survived for decades on this planet. We are obsessed with youth and physical beauty, which ironically teach us nothing and only give us momentary gratification."

The American singer ends her reflection by thanking Silvio Ciccone and ing her mother: "Good job, Dad! I'm proud of you and I know mom is smiling and happy wherever she is. Thank you for giving me your zero f**ks given mentality!"
