My grandpa has the most amazing attitude!
It is in the blood of my family to be worried and upset I suppose.They have to get all worked up for even the tiniest of things and make an issue out of it.My grandfather however is unlike the rest.His attitude matches his physical appearance-a healthy old man with hardly any hair,a big fat tummy and not to forget,his grin(though he has very few teeth left).My grandpa unlike the others as I said,is always in a good mood and he always has something positive to say.It was not only me but almost everyone in the neighbourhood who loved my grandpa.
A lot of people came home regularly to talk to my grandpa because of his lovely attitude towards life.He was a natural motivator and would teach people to look at the positive side of things.Seeing this style made me really curious.So one day,I went up to grandpa and asked him how a person could be so positive all the time.Grandpa grinned and said,"Each morning I wake up and say to myself-I have 2 choices today-to be in a good mood or in a bad mood.I always choose to be in a good mood."I protested and said that life was not that easy."Ofcourse it is!"he said."Life is all about choices when you cut out the junk from every situation."
Several months later,Grandpa fell ill and had to undergo a surgery.After 2 years of treatment,he was fine.When i asked him how he was,he said that he could not be any better.I looked at him rather amused."I had to make a choice to live or to die.I chose to live"he said laughing.
Grandpa's attitude could sail him through any kind of situation.My grandpa has the most amazing attitude!
