Random Act of Kindness

College is a time of business. Everyone knows it. For my random act of kindness I decided t0 email both sets of grandparents out of the blue. I have tried very hard to stay in contact with my family since I arrived in Waverly, but sometimes it is a lot harder then it would seem. I decided that emailing them to give them an update on the life of their oldest grandson might be nice.

I told them about everything that is keeping me busy, and how my classes are going. I gave them my best and told them all much how much I have appreciated the love and support they have shown. It felt good to email them, and as a result, I had an epiphany. I am going to stay in better contact with them. I do a good job of staying in touch with my parents and siblings, but my grandparents are just as important to me. I can at the very least send them a short email every once in a while. They will appreciate the message, and it makes me feel good in the process. College has shown my how much family really means to me and how much I value them. I may have taken them for granted at times, but it is something that really isn't noticed until you can't always see them. There is truly more to college then schoolwork...
