简单•浓烈•爱

 爱，无声无息，
像水一样，无声地在身边流淌，又无息在在身边远逝。
但对爱而言，它仍在荡漾……
——题记
五年了，“爷爷”这个词，对我来说又熟悉又陌生，但爷爷对我的爱，却是一笔挥之不去的浓墨。
花中的双手
儿时，总记得，爷爷常在花园中忙忙碌碌。他有时会拿小板凳，在花丛中静静地看着自己的“世界”，有时又会手把手地教我如何种花，如何分辨它们，如何……
当时的我，看着、摸着那双粗糙的大手并没有多想，而现在回忆起来，却浮想联翩。
那双手，是如此地粗糙，刻下了一条条岁月的纹路，在这些纹路上，记录着爷爷的战斗经历和岁月风霜，记录着爷爷对家人的关心，记录着爷爷的爱。
最后的礼物
那天，天是阴的。在病床上的爷爷脸色仍然像以前那样红红的，很亲切，但对我说的那些话，仿佛在预示着什么。
“一定要好好学，做作业，山外还有山呢。”
的确，这是爷爷最后留给我的礼物了。现在的我也明白了，人的一生是短暂的，无非是十几年到几十年的长短，但不同的是生命的意义。我们现在必须用心来充实自己的生命，不断地充实，生命才能不断地流光溢彩。
无尽的等待
就在爷爷给了我“最后礼物”几天后的夜里，爸爸忽然叫醒了我，说“爷爷快不行了……”，在去医院的路上，对于一个刚过12岁的女孩来说，那种感觉是无法言表的。在医院里，我静静地流泪，静静地等待，等着那个挽救回来的通知，但我没有等到那个企盼。
无尽的等待是无望、漫长的，但知道吗，其实在我等爷爷的过程中，爱早已在我与爷爷的心中反复穿梭着。

爷爷对我的爱，单纯得象小溪一样淙淙地流淌，浓烈得象一坛老酒散发着醇香，其亲让我怀念，其情让我陶醉，其爱让我流泪。

Missing My Grandpa
My grandpa was an unforgettable man in my life. He influenced the way I think, act, and behave. He taught me ethics, manners, and some aspects about life. He always thought of others before himself and always striving to do the right thing for his family and friends. In all he was wonderful man who has a high standing and a great heart.

The thing about my grandfather that many admire was that he was a general. He didn’t become this overnight but through determination, endurance, and love for his country. When he started in the Chinese Red Army he came from an economically poor family with very little financial backing yet he became a brilliant. He came before he graduated from high school. Even though he had all these difficulties his parents taught him that only through hard work and determination he cam become great. After he listened to this advice he set his mind straight and strived to become the best could. After many years he achieved the rank of general and gained the admiration of many. He led many soldiers successfully in many battles and gained him renown. He is a truly determined, hard-working military genius.
He also has a kind heart towards many including his family which he places before himself. He does what he can to see they live happy life and offer support and love to them. If there were anything that was within his power to give to his family happiness or success he would do it. He was very selfless and tries to provide the best for them.
My grandpa loves me dearly, and educated me in such a many ways so that I can become successful like him. He taught me many virtues that will make my life easier and better. He also taught me to enjoy life to its fullest. He taught me many of the things I’d find useful later such as an interest in art. He was as close to a father to me as I can remember.
Over 1000 people attended his funeral and that shows the multitude that he has touched. He has touched many, inspired many, and was close to many. His loss was a grievous shock to us and it brought sadness, but his legacy still lives on in those who remember him and keep him and his ideas close.
