Who is someone you’re glad to have in your life? What’s one thing they do that you value?
My Nana (Mums side grandad)
My grandad is one of the most honourable and inspirational people I’ve ever known. He’s a man of integrity and a natural leader, and there’s tranquillity about him that I’ve never really seen in anyone else. He’s seen a lot in his life, and yet he’s still the sweetest, calmest person in the room. No matter how tough things get, he keeps a clear head. He has this way of finding the right balance for everyone, in everything. When there’s a problem, he steps in and irons it out, and whatever was broken stays fixed, like it’s been put back together with superglue. And when he gives his word, that’s it. He’ll honour it to the very end. He’s a real gem, the kind you don’t come across much these days, and I’m so grateful to have him. I look up to him in every way. If I can grow to be even a little as calm, gentle and well spoken as he is, and find balance the way he does, I’ll be proud of that. I'm glad to call him my Nana.
