In the new Project "Life" from 
, which found a strong response from the authors of the site. The Golos on Steemit until this project found support, you can write on different topics. You can share personal photos with a detailed description, you can tell a story from life and it's just wonderful!
I want posts that you publish in this contest were interesting, at least to someone. Write a story about a person, about a real person - it's not to write about a fictional character, it really can be harder, there's no need to embellish or add anything you do not need, all the same it's a life story and I think it's right to write like it was actually or describing a person, writing Since you saw him, knew and understood.
I would like to write about my grandmother. On Golos and Steemit, I wrote an absolutely truthful story of her birth, her childhood life and her youth. The whole story is written down from her words, my grandmother and I had a special connection or affection. I used to be very busy before I got to this site, and I always dreamed of finding a website or portal where you can publish your stories and poems.
I did not like samizdat, I only registered there, and at best published one or two poems and a story. When I learned from my friend about Stimita and about the possibility of publishing my works, I was very happy. And first of all took part in one of the Literary competitions and published an autobiographical story about his grandmother.
My grandmother Vera Efimovna Bondarenko (Kovalenko)
Called her "Voice of Vera". Why so named? Grandmother had an unusually strong beautiful voice. She is from the east of Ukraine, she loved to sing Cossack songs. More details of her story can be found in the posts 1 2 3 4 5 6
In this post I want to write about the time when my grandmother was engaged in me and my sister. She was an extraordinary person. Itself, having lost parents in infancy, very much loved all of their grandchildren. More precisely, she had 5 granddaughters and I was one grandson. I was a favorite with my grandmother Vera.
After experiencing a hunger strike, and having seen a lot on her way of life, she was a very resourceful person. Having brought up two daughters, giving all that could be given to them at that difficult time, she never sat idly by. Life forced me to work. Being a daughter from the kulak class, she was very enterprising. Many villagers, seeing her ingenuity and ingenuity, took her as an example.
She, living in the north of the Odessa region, traveled with her daughters to Arkhangelsk, Murmansk and Chelyabinsk on trains, and they sold there yellow cherry, cherry, cucumber and sunflower seeds. Once they arrived in Arkhangelsk, on the eve of the sailor's day. Cucumbers were sold fresh, then grandmother realized that cucumbers can lose their freshness and decided to make pickled, lightly salted cucumbers. Said-done, and eventually all the cucumbers to one were bought and eaten with great pleasure.
If we talk about how my grandmother took care of me and my sister, and 4 more granddaughters from my eldest daughter, then I note that she took us all to the sea and not once. These are inexpressible memories ... Grandmother rented a room and we went to the sea, and at the same time received a lot of joy and pleasure.
When I was ill, I often suffered from earaches, colds, my grandmother was near and brightened up my suffering with my presence.
Each of us has warm memories of the love and care shown to them.
It's great that you can write about this after many years and refresh these warm feelings of gratitude and mutual love for close people who may no longer be with us. It is important to love and show tenderness and care for family and friends. How important it is not to hesitate to express your feelings and attitude towards these people. Despite the complexes, and the fact that it is not very popular in the world. Do not be shy to take care of your loved ones, in fact, it's natural and normal. Do not hesitate to say kind words to your relatives, do not hide your feelings. Take care of your loved ones while you have such an opportunity. It allows you to feel happiness and joy in life.
