I know many old person but today I wanted to specially talk about one of them that is my grandfather. My grandfather is incredibly live a very intriguing life and he is very close to my heart. He is in his 18s but looks like someone as younger and he always ready to help everybody. I chose my grandfather for this topic because I think he has actual abilities and he deal any problem within a very great and brave mind. From my childhood my grandfather always told me about their life story that how many problems they had suffered in their life and how they addressed the obstacle. I was inspired by my grandfather. He always gave help to other people even that he is in 80s but now he still follows his habits that is painting. He is still doing painting in their free time which provide him real calm and composer to their mind. He think that it does not matter to do anything if we want to continue our dreams, continue our habits then it just depend on our persistence and how much our mind is sensible for achieve something in our life. My grandfather always say one thing to me that is never die before you that means never throw the towel in any difficulty. It means we do not stop thinking about our dreams if we are failed in one time because failure is just a way to put out our step on next level.

I know many old people, but today I wanted to specifically talk about one of them, my grandfather. My grandfather has lived an incredibly intriguing life, and he is very close to my heart. He is in his 80s but looks much younger, and he is always ready to help everybody. I chose my grandfather for this topic because I think he has remarkable abilities and he deals with any problem with a great and brave mind. Since my childhood, my grandfather has always told me about his life story, the many problems he has faced, and how he addressed those obstacles. I am inspired by my grandfather. He always helps other people, even though he is in his 80s, and he still follows his passion for painting. He continues to paint in his free time, which provides him real calm and composure. He believes that it does not matter what we do; if we want to continue our dreams and habits, it just depends on our persistence and how sensible our minds are in achieving something in our lives. My grandfather always says one thing to me: never die before you do, which means never throw in the towel during any difficulty. It means we should not stop thinking about our dreams if we fail once because failure is just a step toward the next level.
