Q1> If you could meet one thing or person you lost in your life again, what would that be?
My grandfather is the most missed person. He was the most important person during my childhood. He told me when he would die he will stay in heaven and have a further look at me. That was about 30 years ago. He is still with me and so I don`t want to meet him again.
Q2> Why did you choose this/the person?
My grandfather has had time to show me the beauty of nature. Once he build a small flute for me out of an small branch. He read to me the bible. He told me that he hasn`t an other book with stories for children and that we will find there many beatiful stories. I did never brought him an other book. My grandfather showed me the animals in the forest. Once we found an animalscelett and so he showed me the dead too.
Q3> How did you lost the thing/ the person?
My grandfather died when I was in the age of 10. I did not cry, just a little about the tears of my mother. Until the next years I read most of his books. I had`t the feeling of missing him or anything else. It took a long long time until I realized that I was still missing him.
Q4> Do you remember that thing/person well? can you describe how it/the person looked like?
When I felt missing this person, I started to find out something about my grandfather. I found out that I did`t know him. Now I`ve got a photo of him in my Kitchen. I still wonder how he looks like, I haven`t got any reminds, even that he was a big person. But he`s still with me. That`s important for my personality.
