Well, I heard a lot of stories in my childhood from my parents and grandparents. And because at the evening my grandparents all were telling me a story and it’s a time when my father told me a story about my grandparents’ struggle. My grandfather was a single owner in our family during the 90s. Because at that time he wanted to be a police officer but due to financial crisis he did not achieve his goal. After a few years he had a desire to do and he prepared for his competitive exam. At first he did not clear his exam but he had a potential to do it twice and for competitive exam. But this is not a cup of tea for my grandparents because at that time we are not financially stable and do not afford the fees of the competitive exam. And I always remember this story because my grandparents are motivated and also motivate the other through this story. My father told me that my grandparents was great potential to do all the work. He worked as a police officer as a good inspector and after that he retired as a DGP in recent year. And he always motivate the other colleagues through their story that don’t give up. And if you face the many challenges, do the challenges with the inspiration through which you get your desirable achievement. All in all this is a job which is done by my grandparent.

Well, I heard a lot of stories in my childhood from my parents and grandparents. In the evening, my grandparents would tell me stories, and it was during this time that my father shared a story about my grandparents' struggles. My grandfather was the sole provider for our family during the 90s. At that time, he wanted to be a police officer, but due to the financial crisis, he did not achieve his goal. After a few years, he had a desire to pursue this career and prepared for his competitive exam. At first, he did not pass the exam, but he had the potential to try again. However, this was not easy for my grandparents because we were not financially stable and could not afford the fees for the competitive exam. I always remember this story because my grandparents are motivating and also inspire others through it. My father told me that my grandfather had great potential to do all the work. He worked as a police officer and became a good inspector, eventually retiring as a DGP in recent years. He always motivated his colleagues with his story, encouraging them not to give up. If you face many challenges, tackle them with the inspiration that leads to your desired achievements. All in all, this is a job that my grandparent did.
