Today I would like to share the story of my grandfather who played a pivotal role in my upbringing. He is currently 70 years old but he will be celebrating his 71st birthday this month. I am eager to return my house and celebrate this special occasion with him. Reflecting on all the wonderful moments we’ve shared over the years. You know he is a knowledgeable person who travels a lot during his younger years. I know he has encountered numerous challenges so he has valuable experiences and life lessons to pass on to his children and run children. I remember when I started learning a bike. I fell on my bike multiple times. Every time I fell I just wanted to give up. But he told me no matter how hard the situation is, I never give up. If you fail, that’s okay. If you put your heart into whatever you are doing, you can do anything. I love him so much because my grandfather always stood by my side and encouraged me to push through the difficulties in my life. He is a very kind and generous person who spends lots of time engaging in voluntary activities such as inviting environmental campaigns and other community service projects.
