The love of family is life's greatest blessing. I am fortunate enough to have such a sweet
familywho always stays with me THROUGH THICK AND THIN. I like all of my family
members, but thereis one member whom I admire the most and love to spend time
with him/her.OrIn this contemporary world, majority of people want to live separately
from their elders.However, I am fortunate that my grandparents' blessings are still with
me and we all are livingunder one roof. My grandparents are really close to
me, especially my grandfather who is alsomy fav person from my family. We both spend
majority of our time together. On weekdays, inthe evening, we play mind games such as
chess, crosswords, sliding puzzle, pretending etc inorder to do brain exercise
whereas,on weekends, we play different outdoor games. He believesthat being mentally
strong is as vital as being FIT AS A FIDDLE . Apart from this, he loves to trydifferent
CUISINES. Whenever one of us CRAVE for any particular dish, we immediately searchits
recipe from google and try to do experiments in the kitchen. Even though, most of the
timewe don't cook the dish as DELICIOUS as we plan, my grandfather's ENTHUSIASM
motives me tokeep trying new things even if we fail at it. This is the reason I love to
spend time with him. He isalways ready to do creative and crazy things unlike my family.
Rest of my family members canalways be seen busy in their routine work and
sometimes they think doing those things whichwon't benefit us in the future is entirely
waste of time. On the other hand, my grandfather hasdifferent perspective. He believes
that we should try all those things which we find AMUSING. Iam also like him. That
seperate us from others. My fun loving grandfather never TURN DOWNmy ideas of
doing crazy things. That's why, I never MISS THE BOAT to spend my time with him.

 Sample answer:-
I personally believe that everyone should spare time to EXPLORE different places. Even
myfamily loves to do so. Once in a year, we all make plan to visit new places . This year
we plannedto visit all RENOWNED Sikh religious places if Punjab. We all were really
DELIGHTED to visitthere. We decided to cover the distance by car. This was in the month
of July and it was reallyimportant journey for us because we all family members usually
remain busy in our work mostof the time. Only in the month of July, everyone gets some
free time to enjoy properly withfamily members. Moreover, in the end of July , my
brother was moving to abroad for higherstudies. We didn't want to miss the
opportunity to spend that precious time together becausemy brother would be away for
at least three years . The journey started at CRACK OF DAWN.We decided to visit
"Sri Anandpur Sahib" at first. Suddenly, our car stopped working 7km awayfrom our
destination. Even though, my father has proper knowledge about how to handle
carbreak down, that day it was really hard for him to find the problem. At last,
he googled aboutnearby mechanics and luckily there was a repair shop STONE'S THROW
AWAY from that place.Still it took 1 hour to solve the issue. Just after 3 km from there
we got to know that there waswork under construction and we had to travel by
alternative path. That means spending extra 3hours to reach our destination which was
not a good idea. My brother really wanted to takeblessing from "Gurudwara Sahib"
before moving abroad . Besides this, my grandfather wantedto take us there so that we
keep connected with our roots. If we continued the journey, itwould have been really
tiring for my father to drive. However, we decided to visit only one sikhreligious place
that day. Everyone agreed with this decision. As we reached really late in theevening,
we decided to stay there for a night. Still we all were happy that we enjoyed that
dayeven after our journey delayed.
