Grandparents are the parents of our parents who are very much older than us. So, we have to feed good care of them. We have to feed them, bathe them and spend time with them if they are helpless. What they need most is company, some one to talk to and listen to what they have to say. We can turn to them for advice In the past, even kings sought advice from the elders. Those kingdoms were very powerful, strong and united. Lichchavi kingdom in India is an example of that. We can get wisdom, knowledge and experience from our grand parents.
I have a lovely time with my grand parents. In my leisure, I sit at my grand father’s feed and ask him to relate stories and recite poems very well. So I memories these to poems. My grand mother waits at the gate until I come back from school. She is the one who helps with me my home work. We are close, like friends.
All religions emphasize the need to take care to elders. When we care of them, there‘ll be happy and we’ll be happy too. It’s a two way happiness. We can get lots of things from elders, love, affection, protection and guidance are just a few of them. So we also have to give love and affection in return. It’s like a repayment for all that they have done and do for us.
I have the utmost respect from grand parents, the elder in our society.
