In my life there are few people who I can say influenced my life. One of them is my grandmother. She was a very energetic woman, and even if she was over sixty her way of thinking was very youthful, and modern. She grew up in a village and in her 20`s she moved to our town. Therefore she knew some tricks for everything. Like for different illnesses which herbs we need to take or some very practical advice on anything. Also she was very special and always had a phrase for every occasion. These phrases were funny and so true, but the main thing was they were always positive. Just like her view on life. Her advice was always very simple but straight to the point. My grandma had a great love for classical music. She introduced me to some great piece of music. I remember when I was at her place we would sit outside on the balcony and listen to some of great music, these moments are the best moments of my life. So many times when I have trouble in my life I always think about her and our great time together, that makes me calm down and try to think the way she was thinking.…
