Grandparents are important people in everyone’s life．They are those people who take care of you and love you. They are special persons who can give you wise advice．
My grandparents always teach me to respect others，and they show me that love and feelings are important things in life and that we shouldn't pay much attention to material things or what people look like．
My grandparents show a mixture of cultures and nationalities(国籍)because they come from different countries．For example，my grandfather on my mother's side is from Spain，and my grandmother is also from Spain，but from a different city．On my father's side，my grandfather is from Venezuela，and my grandmother is from Italy．A1though they are from different countries，my grandparents have a very good relationship．
What’s more，my grandparents are people that always keep in touch with the new things in the world. For example，my grandmothers always care about fashion，how they dress and their personal appearance. And my grandfathers always care about the important events in the world．
I think I am very lucky that all of my grandparents are alive because I have learned so much from them，I would like to continue learning from them even though we are living in different countries now．I will always remember my grandparents as role models for me．

My class and I visited Chris Care Center in Phoenix, Arizona to comfort the old people who needed a little cheering up during the holiday season.
The first two there were for persons requiring help in taking care of themselves. We sang for them. They loved our sweet songs and the flowers that we left with them.
As we were on the third floor for old people with Alzheimer (老年痴呆症), most of them off at the walls or floor. However, one lady my eye. She was sitting by the door, in a wheelchair, singing songs to herself. They weren’t the songs that we were singing, at least they didn’t like that. As we got with each festive song, she did as well. The louder we got, the louder she got. she was singing, she was also out to us with her hands and body. I knew that I should have gone over to her, but I thought that my were to my students. People who worked at the care center could to her, I thought. Just when I stopped feeling about not giving her the attention she needed, one of my students, Justin, showed me what the holiday season is really about.
Justin also the same lady. The difference between us is that he on her needs, but I didn’t. During the last song, “Silent Night,” Justin walked over to her and held her hand. He looked this aged lady in her and with his actions said, “You are important, and I will take my to let you know that.”
This tired, elderly lady stopped singing and held his hand. Then she touched his cheek with the other hand. Tears began to fall down her face. No can completely describe that touching moment...
It a boy to teach me, a man, about kindness and love. Justin’s example of a complete, selfless attitude toward another was a that I will never forget. He was the teacher that day, and I consider myself to have witnessed his lesson.
