^^

just got to know some about my family..
basically, on my mom's.

had chit chat with her the other night.
she told me so many things on my grandma!.
though i never see her before.
im so happy getting to know her ^^

mom told me an idiom where my grandma used to tell her.

"Absence makes the heart grows fonder, familiarity breeds contempt,
even if familiarity doesnt breeds contempt, it does takes away the age of admiration"

it means,
when you are away from someone, you realize how much you miss them, how much you care for them. but if you're with them often, you only felt contempt to see them. you wont notice how much you care for them, for they are always there.

im not good in defining.. but i guess the idiom itself says it all.
lol.
my grandma used to read all of these idioms.
she had a big book of it according to my mom. XD
i really admire her hardwork!.
and my mom said my grandma had a beautiful cursive handwriting ^^
i really want to see it!. ><"
