No tengo heirloom?

What is an heirloom? An heirloom by definition is a family possession handed down from generation to generation. For me personally I don't think my family has anything like this. Although something to me that I consider as an heirloom would be the fact that I can always keep and open mind about just about everything. It sounds strange but that to me is truly my family heirloom. Why? Well because for all my life up to this point, my mother has raised me to never judge someone for their beliefs or appearance or any other particular aspect of them. She always tells me that her mother would be the nicest person to meet because she wouldn't mind if someone was a different religion or different race, she always treated them as a member of her family. My mom says it runs mostly in the family and personally I'd like to one day teach my children to be like their great grandmother, and grandmother.
