Grandparents a Blessing
Parents are the blessings of God, but grandparents are the ‘grand-blessings’ of God. Those who have these blessings are the lucky ones. According to my experience, grandparents are even more loving than your own parents. Parents may scold you, even some of the parents’ abuse and beat up their children if they find them doing anything wrong. But grandparents are not like that, though they tell the kids how to see the different between right and wrong, yet they never treat children harshly. Grandparents just flow their love constantly towards the kids all the time.
Before moving on, let me throw some light on this beautiful relation by quoting my own example. As far as my experience is concerned, I live my Dada (grandfather) even more than my own father. I haven’t seen such a loving person in my life, which always gave and expected nothing but love. I really don’t know how did he always knew what was going on inside my mind; he always fulfilled all my wishes before letting me ask for anything. Since my childhood, I used to sleep with my Dada and he used to tell me stories all night. He used to make me feel like a prince and before going to bed everyday I used to tell him, “Dada, I don’t like this bed sheet, I will sleep on a new one.” And he did whatever I asked him to do. I always accompanied him wherever he went. I still remember those days when he used to withdraw money by my hands from bank. While having ice cream at parlor I used to say, “Dada, Aik yahan khaonga aur aik ghar ja kar” (Grandfather, I will eat one here and will take one home). By quoting al this I want you to understand how living the grandparents are. Grandparents love grandchildren more than their own kids. It was my Dada who bought me my first bicycle and my first car when I grew up. I never had enough courage to ask my father for anything. Whenever I needed anything, I went straight to my Dada. He never refused me. May his soul rest in peace! Ameeeen
