Relationships and its value gets totally undermined.But I feel true happiness and peace eludes people when one thinks of gaining something materialistic out of a relationship.shobhana shenoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15976214548565169192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1330172498764514199.post-373475950991645262010-07-15T19:27:06.082+05:302010-07-15T19:27:06.082+05:30Good post...

He used to buy me Gems everyday inspite of my mom scolding him. I used to eat the chocolate from the shop till the moment i reach the door of my home. As soon as i reach the entrance of our home, i used to throw the chocolate in the gutter nearby. My mom used to scold me and my granddad used to protect me. I really miss my granddad who must be having a nice time in heaven watching me grow.:(:(:(Ravishankarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03583614107374360531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1330172498764514199.post-39859805699767408072010-07-15T12:06:11.942+05:302010-07-15T12:06:11.942+05:30...so very true, unfortunately I've also seen ......so very true, unfortunately I've also seen some 'highly educated', very successful parents calculating the "worth" of staying with parents.

They will only be visitors coming home once in two to three years. Grandchildren therefore will not be able to forge that bond within a short span of a month.shobhana shenoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15976214548565169192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1330172498764514199.post-5135018883043253692010-07-14T23:07:07.907+05:302010-07-14T23:07:07.907+05:30So GRANDLY said.. it is a lovely bond and somethin...So GRANDLY said.. it is a lovely bond and something kids living overseas away from the grandparents miss so very much.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
