Best answer

Yes, the author‟* grandmother was a person strong in character. The instances to prove this are given below.

  • The author‟* grandmother was a person strong in character. She was a picture of contentment but she had firm convictions about certain things in her life.

  • She had her own thoughts about the learning at school. She considered the teaching of scriptures to be more fruitful than science and music.

  • In her phase of loneliness and seclusion, she took to wheel-spinning and feeding sparrows. She appeared composed and did not display any emotion when the author decided to go abroad for studies.

  • Ignoring everyone who tried to stop her, she sang for several hours celebrating the home- coming of her grandson.

  • During the last few hours of her life, ignoring the protests of her family members, she stopped talking to everyone and took to reciting prayers and telling her beads.
