A lesson I learned from Grannie is to never be afraid to try new things. When I was little, she made chicken noodle soup for me to try for the first time. I was too scared to try it because I did not know how it was going to taste. She told me, “try it—you might like it!” So, I mustered up to courage to try it, and I ate it all up! Whenever I am scared to try new things, I think about what she said to me. I cannot let fear hold me back from new experiences because I may end up enjoying them from them. That is a lesson that I learned from her that I will hold with me for the rest of my life.
