What I learn from our parents and grand parents still gives me power and wisdom to move ahead, with their valuable teachings, kindness, and their attitude to life. I have benefited a lot from them.

My grand parents are local well-known citizens in our town, and they live simply and merrily. The smiles are always on their face every day, and definitely, they live a very happy life. They told me that the secret of their happy life is that they eat simply and they worry about almost nothing, which is a good way to release pressure, I think. They just have no difficulties, seemingly.

They also told me that I should be honest, and have a strong sense of conscience. They value them very much. When some neighbors need help, they will go the errands to do what they can to help them. This is one of the reasons why they have a good fame around where they live. My parents gave me and helped me to foster the ability to make a good living. I think that I should live with an appreciating attitude, and due to their help, I have had the ability to survive in the competitions in finding jobs and working.

I was encouraged by them to have confidence to do something well. In order to help me to keep up my courage, they guided me with the self-error corrections, and the opportunities have made me to use my head when I encounter difficulties. It can help me to find a way to solve the problems by myself.

All of them bestowed me with love and respect, which makes my life full of treasures of love. My life is simple, too, and I am living a happy life. My parents have guided me in the way that I could gain a sense of achievement, which makes me full of confidence. I think, this is one of the most important treasures that I got. This helped me to have a strong character and strong determination. When I want to do something, I will do it to the degree that I think it successful.

All of them leave me good memories of my childhood, and some treasures in my life, which makes me enjoy each day, and I know it is priceless. I should say thanks to them, and show my gratitude to them. I love them!
