"Grandfather: My View, Myself Wk16"

Greetings Steemians

Is finally weekend guys, how are you all doing today? It was a very long week and am glad that the weekend is finally back, I really hope to enjoy this weekend to the fullest. Of course this week is about grandfathers, those particular set of people are very wise. I thank @saintkelvin17 for organizing this contest.

What do you understand by the word Grandfather?

Grandfather is known to be the father to our dad or mum, our grandfathers trained out parents when our parents were very young and now our parents are matured and our grandfathers are old, it is our parents that now take care of our grandfathers.

Grandfather is known as a man who has experienced a lot of things in life and they are all old, through the experience of grandfathers, they have learnt alot of lessons in life that makes them very wise and smart on their old age. We all know that grandfathers are always happy because they know the privilege of experiencing old age.

Is your grandfather still alive, if no, tell us what led to his death, if yes, tell us how he's doing.

My grandfather is still alive by the grace of God and he's very healthy and strong, he's above 78 years old and his wife my grandmother, is also still alive. They are being taken care of by their senior grandchildren.

Every holiday my family and I always visit my paternal and maternal grandparents and we always spend great time with them. Our grandparents are always happy to see us and each time they see us, they will always say that we have grown alot.

Is there an old man in your neighborhood? Tell is about him as well.

Yes there's an old man in my neighborhood who always sit at the verandah of their house and each time I pass the front of his house, I always make sure I greet this old man. The man is also healthy as well and he always goes to church unlike few old people who find it difficult to go to church on Sundays. This man has 4 children and 7 grandchildren, I don't really think his wife is still alive but I hope for the best to the old man and I pray he lives more longer.

Tell us about the best advice you have received from an old man.

Hmmm best advice, ok I remember when my paternal grandfather was talking to me about Yahoo boys trending in Delta state, when we travelled in the month of December. My grandfather adviced me never to follow those fraudsters because their days are numbered on earth because they have committed alot of sin. My grandfather told me that those guys money won't last at all, my grandfather when you dey go na. I love my grandfathers alot and I pray they longer.
