Four Generations in a Picture

Today, I am going to share one of the loveliest moments of my life with you all, and it's about four generations captured in a picture. I just love this picture, and there are many reasons for it to be cherished. It was the time I was blessed with a baby boy, experiencing the feeling of being a father for the first time in my life, in April 2020, the peak time of COVID-19. Due to precautionary measures and strict conditions worldwide, I was unable to share this happiness with others. No one was allowed to meet or roam around freely. However, my family was there to support me, and I spent that difficult time with lots of ease. At last, watching my son, I forgot all of my pain and the difficult time. That’s not the case with me; I realized how parents struggle and put in lots of effort to comfort their children, never caring about their own pain or problems, all efforts just to make their children comfortable and happy.

I got a bit emotional there, coming back to the main topic of this post. Due to COVID-19, not many people visited us on this occasion. But I was eager to take my son to my grandmother just to make her happy. It was on priority list and the first thing to do when things get better. Although, this is not the first time she became a great-grandmother. But being the youngest in my family, I was loved more by all family members, and the happiness to hold my son would be out of this world. Although we showed her through video chat and in pictures, it just made things more complicated. It doesn’t give the same pleasure as meeting someone in person or holding someone’s hand. We had this experience when my Eldest Bro was blessed with a baby boy in Sweden and we saw him in pictures and on Yahoo chat but always wanted to meet him asap, the real touch has its own charisma which cannot be fulfilled through pictures and most importantly, when it is about Grandchildren.

We waited for things to get better, and it took us two months to visit my grandmother at last. What a lovely moment that was, amazing to see my grandmother, who was not well at that time, showing that unique energy to hold my son. I waited to capture these moments for two months. Me, my mother, her mother, and my son in a single picture showing four generations united in a single frame.

I think it’s a great achievement and lively moment to cheer things up even when you are not feeling well. This visit surely gave her a lot of energy and an inner boost. This is the circle and cycle of life. I still cannot imagine the feeling she would be having at that time because I was so, so happy to see my son. What would be the feeling if I ever get a chance to see the child of my son and then the child of my grandchildren? Wow, that would be amazing. I wish her a long, healthy life, and coming soon will be the honor of great-great-grandmother when, in a couple of years, my nephew will get married and be blessed with a child. It would be amazing to see the five generations in a single picture. Hoping for the best.
