Well, in this modern era, we throw old things away to buy new ones, but in my nation, there are many rituals connected to old things that connect us with our grandparents. Here, I am going to talk about an old item that connects with my heart and is worth mentioning.

It is a gold-plated statue of lord- Krishna, the most prized possession in my home. My grandfather gifted this idol to my father, and we all trust in its power to pay obeisance and request the fulfilment of our desires.

My family also prays to the Lord Krishna every day to stay healthy and happy. In my life, I have never seen anything so priceless and recognisable in my family.

It has been a part of my family for a long time, and during that time, it has brought us much happiness and success in everyone’s life.

This statue has a significant role in my family because it connects us with my ancestors and always motivates me to follow my family rituals and respect my parents and others to succeed in life. So, it is an old thing that we kept in my house.
