I had the privilege to meet my grandparents of both sides, that is paternal and maternal. I am closer to all my grandparents.
The role of our grandparents in our life is very important. Who else will shower me with unconditional love other than my grandparents? They are my teacher, my mentor, playmate, storyteller, and everything. My grandparents take care of me when my parents are not home, my grandparents help me with a lot of work, gives me food and also help me to finish my homework on time. The values I am growing up with are infused in me by my grandparents because they are around me most of the time.
I can see their eyes filled with pride when I achieve something in academics and sports. They support me in everything I do. They never look down upon me or scold me. From a very early age, they taught me to enjoy success and embrace the failure with the same amount of emotion because success and failure go hand in hand. They taught me to have the self-belief that even if I fall, I should always have the courage to stand up and fight again. I have been taught how to respect every human being while never compromising on my self-respect at the same time.
My grandma instilled the basic manners in me from my younger days. She taught me the table manners, how to organise my own room and wardrobe, how-to put-on a dress on my own, and many such things. I will be thankful to her forever for teaching me these things As I am growing up, I understand the meaning of every value she has imbibed in me.
