Hey dear Readers!
I hope you all doing great and productive day.
Yesterday I read the article of @Ayane-chan in which she tells about of grandparents Day. I didn't know about this day before. So thank you so much @Ayane-chan for informing us a beautiful day. But today is 13 September, and the day of grandparents was 12 September. I think no problem if I discuss my grandparents love today.
The love of grandparents is something different and a very sweet relationship. Yesterday I did not meet my grandmother but today I met her. By the way, I'm more attached with my grandmother instead of grandfather.
When I met her , a little gossips between us. I share some words of my grandma with you.
She hate mobile phones:
Actually, grandmother's time, there were no mobiles. And in her opinion, the relationship has gone too far because of mobile. And yes it's true. Coz even in the family , we are using mobile phones, the focus is on our mobile .
But whenever I use mobile in front of her, she grab my cellphone and she hide my mobile in her dupatta(shawl) haha. How cute :)
I try not to use my mobile phone when I sit next to her. Grandparents hates these things guys. So try , when you sit with them not use these things, coz that's consider in etiquettes.
She never know about harassment at her time:
When my grandma watch today's generation she said to me, that:
In my time , I don't know about " what is harassment". We play outside all the time. We didn't even go to school. We play with boys ,with my cousin's also. No fear to be harassed by someone. Because at that time, we all are innocent. We didn't know about a sexual touch. Even our parents don't forbid us to play.
She said that:
Our era was much better than this era. Because today, we can't send children out to play. It's very difficult to believe in today's world.
My marriage is different from today's marriage:
She said , my wedding dress was a shalwar qameez ( Pakistan's national dress). There was nothing in the name of make-up. I had a small box, with red lipstick in it. And once I applied the lipstick, it didn't come off all week. I laugh so hard, when I heard that.
She said, today's women wear millions of wedding dresses and millions of make up applied on their faces. They hide their natural beauty.
She said,
I didn't need makeup because I was cute without any make up at my marriage and your grandfather loves me and praised me more. Haha.
My health is fit at my age:
She said:
In my time, I eat fresh vegetables and fruits. Even I planted fruits and vegetables in my house. I didn't add even any fertilizers. She said:
Today's generation eating pizza, burger, etc. They don't even get energy after eating all this. I don't know what's the names of today's items.
I said to my grandma now animal burger and animal fries are also available. She's shocked to listen this. Haha
I remember , few months ago ,when I eat pizza and and I share to my grandma,
she said:
what's on the top?
I said:
It's cheese, just try it grandma.
she said:
Take it of , I just eat bread because cheese stuck in my throat. I laughing so hard at that time. How innocent she is.
Closing thoughts:
My bonding between my Grandma is so strong. She share everything with me. She feel pains in muscles now. But she sewed dresses of her granddaughter's.
But my grandpa is weak now a days. Guy's I need your prayers for him. Please don't forget to pray for my grandpa. His condition is down day by day.
Grandpa doesn't even let my grandma go anywhere. He said , just stay with me. My grandma takes care of her husband. May God bless both of you. Ameen
My grandparents of my father side is no more. These grandparents are of my mother side. I wish , that my father side grandparents alive and time spend with me. But my father said , your grandpa gone when you was not even born. And when you was 2.5 years old ,you grandma died. RIP
I hope that you like this little conversation. If you have your grandparents then you are lucky guys. Time spend with them. They hide a lots of knowledge inside them. Just spend time with them and gain knowledge.
Don't forget to read their articles. I'm sure you learn something from them.
You have language as Indians, right? I don't know why but I read your article silently with an Indian accent in my mind. Hahaha. By the way, you did great on spending time with your grandma, and your grandma is so cool. I wish my grandma is like that, but she's too strict and always got easily irritated that's why we don't often approach her.
