Who is a Grand father?

Grand Fathers are the fathers of fathers.
They are the most knowledgeable person you know personally.
Sometimes, they are most encouraging than anyone else.
And sometimes they are most strict than anybody.

They know the right time to learn things.
And they know the right time to take you for a trip, be it to a lake or to a temple.
They are the ones who have learnt it the harder way,
and sometimes in a unique way.


Sometimes, you spend a lot more time with your grand father than your father.
And get pampered a lot.
The stories they have to share with you
Are the kinds you will not hear from anyone else

As you grow, they grow older too,
and "oldness" is exponentially related to "age",
spending time with them in the time you have
is good for you and valuable for them

A very crude set of lines on grand fathers... and what I am feeling right now.
