Place and date of birth

Born in the city of Nikolaev, Ukraine, in the family of Ivan Grigoryevich Reshetnik (born August 25, 1960) and Olga Viktorovna Reshetnik (born July 14, 1964).

Childhood, education, circles

Until the age of 4, Gregory dreamed of being a big truck driver when he grew up. Parents instilled love for work in their son from childhood. Every summer, Gregory and his sister were sent to the village to their grandparents, where the children not only had a rest, but also actively helped with the housework.

Gregory's grandfather was very worried that his grandson's voice was too mature and low for his age, he even advised his parents to go to the doctors, because he believed that the boy had problems with his throat. But grandfather's worries turned out to be in vain, because today the voice of Grigory Reshetnik is recognized and loved by millions of viewers. His timbre, without a doubt, can be called the brand of Ukrainian television.

In 1990, Grigory went to school No. 26 in Nikolaev, from the 8th grade he continued his studies in the class with in-depth study of mathematics of school No. 11, where in 2001 he received a diploma of secondary education.

Since childhood, Gregory began to demonstrate Creative skills, which is why at the age of 11 parents send their son to the team folk dance"Trytsvit", and since the age of 16 Grigory has been developing and improving his acting skills in theater studio at the City House of Creativity.

In 2001, the young man enters the Nikolaev branch of the Kiev-Mohyla Academy (since December 10, 2008. educational institution was renamed Chernomorsky State University named after Peter Mohyla) at the Faculty of Finance. But love for the stage and television wins, and after a year of study, Gregory leaves the university and moves to the capital. In 2002, he passed the creative entrance exams with "excellent" marks and entered the first year of the Film and Television Institute of the Kyiv National University of Culture and Arts.

With early childhood Gregory was always very punctual and accurate. This was manifested not only in relation to people, but also to things. For example, he really liked sneakers, with which he practically never parted.

Gregory was never afraid of work, because what you just won’t agree to for the dream of becoming a TV presenter. Therefore, at the age of 16, the guy worked as a seller in the market - he sold sausages. And as a student, he worked on television as an administrator-make-up artist.

Personal life

On October 10, 2010 he got married. His other half is Kristina Dmitrievna Reshetnik (D.Sc November 25, 1989, Ivano-Frankivsk, maiden name- Timchuk). Gregory and Christina met at work. Their relationship developed rapidly: literally a week later they started dating, and after a few weeks they went on vacation together. Even then, Gregory and Christina realized that they had found each other and never wanted to part.

On April 16, 2013, the main event in the life of the spouses took place - the birth of their first child, who was named Ivan. He is the greatest value in their life, which since the birth of their son has been filled with special meaning and has become much more interesting: they travel a lot, attend exhibitions and excursions, go in for sports, meet friends - and all this is already together, the three of us.

Today, July 4, the younger Reshetnik turned one month old - the first significant date and the first birthday. The parents congratulated the baby via Instagram and for the first time named the son's name. And, complete.

instagram @grisha_reshetnik

grisha_reshetnik Happy first little holiday, son! I can't believe that a whole month has already flown by. We love you, our Dmitry Grigorievich 😊 😍

The cute photo and kind words evoked the expected response from followers – reading comments is no less pleasant than looking at a picture of a beautiful family: “Dimaaa - I love this name)) if it weren’t for her husband, who Dima, would have named her son like that)”, “Wonderful Motherland))) well done!!! Sinochkiv was named after their tattoos))) Ivan and Dmitro))) Hi, everything will be good with you)))”, “Happy first month!)) one hard month behind)”, “Happy first month kitten! Christina is super 👏 very beautiful ☺️”.

The same picture was posted on Instagram by Kristina Reshetnik, the mother of little Dimochka, and signed as follows:

kristina_reshetnik It is holy in our family this year, little-great - 1️⃣ month to our sinochki 🎈🎊🎂 It is not apparent that we lived without a new earlier 👨👩👦👦 We love you, our Dmitro Grigorovich 😃😍🎉🎉

instagram @kristina_reshetnik

kristina_reshetnik My little sailor is everywhere with me 👼🏼 Demo for my brother, then we will swim and walk 😍 Dorechi, Vanya ask for a skin day, take my brother from the garden 😁 Love from them ❤️

About how they chose a name for their sons, Grigory told in an interview with one of the Ukrainian publications. It turned out, according to tradition, in the Reshetnik family for several generations of boys they call Ivan or Grigory. Therefore, following this tradition, he calmly called his first-born child Ivan. But when the second boy was born, I had to think hard

Of course, it was possible to get out and call Grigory too, but, firstly, it is difficult to pronounce, and secondly, two Grigory in the family is difficult, there will be confusion.

instagram @grisha_reshetnik

So, the whole family came up with a name for the new boy, even Grigory's mother helped. And only on the eve of discharge from the hospital they decided - the baby was named after the second grandfather, Christina's father, Dmitry.

Despite the fact that Dima turned a month old only today, he has already managed to visit with his parents at the fun event "Flamingo Party", which took place the other day at the beach complex "Olmeka Beach"

instagram @kristina_reshetnik

The photo of the baby has already appeared more than once on the parents' Instagram, but they still prefer not to show the baby's face.

Recall that the Ukrainian actor and presenter Grigory Reshetnik is the father of two sons. His wife Kristina gave birth to a second boy on June 4, when Orthodox Christians celebrated big holiday- Trinity. Almost immediately, the excited and happy father of the newborn shared his joy, followed by his mother.

A day later, the eldest son of Kpristina and Grigory Reshetnik, 4-year-old Ivan, met his little brother.

Congratulations to Dima and his parents on their first birthday! Let it grow happy!

All three winter months, Grigory Reshetnik plans to "disappear" on the set of the new "Bachelor" (STB channel), which takes place in exotic countries, so now he is very busy and practically inaccessible to the press. Our meeting took place the day after Grisha's return to Ukraine. To my surprise, the TV presenter did not look tired at all after a 12-hour flight, rather the opposite - vigorous, cheerful, friendly and in a good mood.

- Grisha, Christina, this New Year special for you - the first in the life of your son Vanechka.

Grigory: The New Year is a good occasion to gather at the table with the whole family, but, unfortunately, due to their profession, very often in new year's eve I'm working. This year was no exception, but on January 1 we got together as our small family - me, Kristyusha and Vanechka.

Vanyusha is only eight months old, he probably won’t remember this New Year yet, but still, did you prepare surprises for your son?

Christina: Grandparents made sure that the grandson was dressed as Santa Claus. I understand that he is still a baby, but I think that a child should be given a fairy tale even from such a young age.

- I know that thanks to Christina you, Grisha, got up on skis. Are you going to the mountains this year?

CG: By the way, we met Kristusha exactly five years ago, on December 14, on this very day. Great! Thank you for remembering our anniversary. So, after we met, literally five days later we started dating and went on New Year's holidays to the Carpathians to meet our parents and go skiing at the same time. The fact is that Krystyusha is from Ivano-Frankivsk and has been skiing since the age of 13, so she immediately introduced me to it. Two weeks later I was already acquainted with my parents, three weeks later - with my grandparents. And that's when I first tried to get up on skis. Now every year we gather with friends in winter big company and we go to the mountains.

Grisha, based on what you accidentally remembered today about your anniversary of your acquaintance, we conclude: Christina is not one of those sentimental girls who require their husbands to remember all significant dates.

G: Thank God, Christina and I were lucky in this regard! When a couple is just starting to meet, she, of course, remembers the first day of the meeting, the first kiss, the first flowers. But now we have so many significant dates that we wouldn’t even remember about the day we met if we didn’t schedule an interview that day. Although we remember our wedding anniversary, we celebrate the birth of our son every month.

- Christina, do you remember the day Grisha proposed to you?

DG: We have come to the conclusion that we are not offended by each other when someone has forgotten some significant day and, in general, we do not bother about this. The most important thing is attention loving people. And we do not focus on gifts and souvenirs - we can give each other something just like that, without being tied to a date. I would like to pamper my wife more often, but, unfortunately, due to the frantic pace of life, it is not always possible to pay much attention to her. Moreover, the emphasis is now shifted towards Vanyusha.

- With the advent of your son, what is there absolutely no time for?

K .: The first period, of course, was the most difficult - there was not enough time for anything. All our attention was focused on the son. We do not use the services of nannies, sometimes grandmothers help us, and when they come to visit us, Grisha and I can be alone for some time. Thank God, Vanyushka is a very calm and obedient boy, so now we all have time with him. We even go swimming together.

- Do you adhere to any methodology in Vanya's upbringing?

G.: To be honest, when we were in position, already then Christina read a lot of different methods, went to courses. Before the birth, we thought that we would raise him intuitively. Let your child crawl, play with toys and watch what is happening. But the fact is that now children are developing so quickly and so progressive, and Vanya has so much energy that he had to reconsider his views. Now he manages to go to swimming training three times a week and work with a coach. He swims, by the way, from a month.

- Didn't your heart skip a beat when you lowered a one-month-old baby under water?

G .: From the age of ten, I began to bathe my son in the bath, after watching all sorts of programs about swimming for babies. When I lowered it under water, my grandmother and mother, of course, turned blue with fear, standing behind me (smiles). When Vanyusha learned to hold his breath underwater, then I already handed over my son to the coach. This summer we even introduced Vanya to the sea - he also swam there.

- So, you are one of those extreme parents who are not afraid to change the environment of babies?

K .: He is the same person as we are, albeit a small one. From birth, we take our son everywhere with us - Vanya managed to travel half of Ukraine, he visited abroad. We have no fear in this regard.

G: For my birthday, when Vanya was six months old, we went to Italy. They walked all over Rome, including the Vatican, and all this time he sat quietly in a carriage. When we used to travel with Christina, we learned from foreigners - they travel calmly with small children, fly by planes, not like us - in their childhood they first saw the sea at the age of seven, and even then after my grandmother signed the permit (laughs ).

K .: From the age of four months, Vanya also went to English. This is some puppet show, where children are shown performances in English - a special technique for learning the language from infancy.

- So children at eight months still do not talk!

G: Vanya is already trying to say “mom” and “dad”. I hope he will go to dad, who at the year already tried to speak in whole sentences, and at the age of one and a half he read poetry, according to the stories of grandmothers (smiles). But we don’t try to prove something to someone in Vanya’s upbringing, we just want him to smile, be happy, so that it gives him pleasure. He already understands what is possible and what is not. In the upbringing of Vanya, we do not have permissiveness - we have a controlled democracy.

He is not a year old, but he is engaged in swimming and English. Who do you want to raise? Christina, for sure you, like many girls, dreamed long before the birth of a child that if a son is born, he will be a football player or a diplomat, and if a daughter is a ballerina.

K .: I want my son to go in for sports, and it doesn’t matter which ones. Swimming, tennis, football - whatever he wants, he will choose. Maybe chess mental development. I want Vanya to be happy child, comprehensively developed and then he himself decided what he wants to achieve in life and who to become.

- Grisha, what are your plans for your son? You wanted a boy first.

G.: It is natural that the first should be a boy, because I myself am the eldest son (I also have a younger sister). And then we have good tradition in the family - boys are called either Vanya or Grisha. This is passed down from generation to generation - my dad Ivan, grandfather Grigory. Our Vanya continued this. I really don’t know what we will do when the second boy is born ...

- Well, the second one is not difficult - it will be Grisha, but what will you name the third son?

G.: Something will have to be invented (laughs). I don’t try to realize any of my childhood dreams in my son, that I myself, for example, did not become a football player or a chess player. When we were waiting for Vanya, I thought that he would crawl until the age of three and would not go to any circles and sections. Now Vanya is eight months old - he has already seen so much, knows so much, visited so many places. Therefore, we will start from his desires. The main thing is that he be comprehensively developed and self-confident, because our Soviet upbringing consists of a set of complexes. We were always told: “this is impossible” or “what people will say” - we lived and were brought up in order to please others, and not to be happy ourselves.

- Grisha, how did your parents raise you?

G: I have perfect family, like Christina, we were lucky in this regard. My parents have been together for over 30 years. My younger sister and I were brought up in great love, our parents never quarreled with us, and if they sorted things out, it was only behind closed doors - we, the children, did not see this. After all, the main thing for a child is that he understands that he is loved. As for upbringing, then, of course, my parents set some tasks for me. My sister and I both got our buttocks, and something was forbidden to us, but our parents wanted us not to need anything. They saved me from the yard company by downloading full program- besides secondary school I'm with fourth grade for seven years I went to the ballroom class ...

So, maybe we will soon see you in the “Everybody Dance” project - the producers have changed the format and now they invite public people - here Hector Jimenez-Bravo and Francis Matthew danced ...

G: I don't know, anything is possible. If they invite me, I will dance with pleasure. When my classmates laughed at me and at my age already knew the difference between the taste of beer and vodka, I worked diligently in the dance class, but at the same time I did not feel somehow flawed. My parents always tried to keep me occupied with something so that there would be less free time for stupid things. The most important thing is that parents trust the child. For example, I have always dreamed of doing creative professions, but still after school he entered Nikolaev to study as a financier. A year later, I proved to my parents that something needs to be changed in my life. They believed me and let me go to Kyiv, where I entered the institute as an announcer and TV presenter. In the future, I will try to support my son in his desires and aspirations.

Leading Bachelor - Grigory Reshetnik / Photo: Vika Alexandrova

Grigory Reshetnik, the host of the country's most romantic project "The Bachelor" on the STB channel, exclusively for the Bez Taboo website, told when he leaves the reality show, why he doesn't like PR in politics and who causes him a stingy male tear.

One of the most handsome and charismatic men in Ukrainian show business. Therefore, it is logical that many women are secretly in love with him. However, the heart of the star of the STB channel has long been occupied by the fragile and sweet wife Christina, who gave him two beautiful sons. In this regard, as they say, se la vie, beautiful ladies.

About creative and personal plans, love and devotion to the family, politics and, of course, "", Grigory Reshetnik spoke with the journalist Bez Taboo.

Filming is not far offnewseason of The Bachelor. Intrigue us, the viewers, so that we turn on STB every Friday and watch reality.

There is definitely some magic in The Bachelor project. Largely due to the genuine emotions of the protagonist and the girls. Our team tries to create the most comfortable conditions for the participants to give birth to real feelings. Every year we look for new incredible places where we can organize beautiful dates. I am glad that the backbone of the team remains unchanged, because it makes it possible to work in unison, to become even better. Just recently, our leaders flew to Los Angeles to meet with the Bachelor teams from all over the world. There they received very flattering reviews of our work. And this is good news.

What exactly do you like about the project?

That real emotions are involved here real people. We do not have actors - all participants live their story the way they would live it outside the cameras. I also like that the project really affects people's lives. It shows how to properly build relationships, communicate with the opposite sex. And, of course, I am flattered that this is one of the highest-rated projects in Ukraine, and I have a direct relationship with it (laughs).

Sometimes in the project, the characters play with feelings, so to speak, fool each other. Have you ever played with someone's feelings? Or maybe someone played with yours?

I won't lie, it happens. But thanks to such situations, we gain invaluable experience. Maybe this helped me to become a happy husband and father of two sons, to understand the value of a family and real feelings. Of course, at the age of 15-16 I thought a little differently and did some stupid things, but I try not to regret anything. I draw conclusions and share my experience with others. As for "The Bachelor", it is probably very difficult to imagine in real life date with four girls at the same time. This has never happened in my life (laughs). Therefore, being a participant in reality is difficult, but, nevertheless, interesting.

A banal question, but still. Have you ever thought that it's time to end your story in a project and switch to some other project?

I won’t argue, during these seven seasons I have said and managed a lot, so sometimes I ask myself a similar question. But, on the other hand, there are viewers who often tell me: "Grigory, we can't imagine the project without you." That's good to hear. In addition, I have developed friendly relations with the team. I guess I still haven't said my final "I" in the project, so I'll stay for a while (laughs). Although I often get different offers, but they don't win over The Bachelor.

In addition to working on television, you also conduct master classes. Whose lectures do you go to?

I visit them, but not that often. Of the latter, I remember Alexander Rodnyansky's master class on cinema. But in general, I noticed that when I started giving my own master classes, I abandoned the concepts and views of others. I want to come up with something of my own, not copy what already exists. Now there are a lot of trainers, coaches, psychologists. My goal is to help people overcome fear public speaking, to teach them to express their thoughts clearly, to defend their point of view, to respect themselves as a person. Very often we put an end to ourselves and our abilities, give the initiative to someone else. And this is wrong. People who attend my master classes and special courses understand this over time.

You are one of the few public figures who are not currently promoting the political situation in the country. Why? Are you not interested?

I am interested in politics. Moreover, thanks to my profession, I have the opportunity to communicate with political leaders and the first persons of Ukraine. Now in our country there are a lot of experts. But I think everyone should be an expert in their field. I am a TV presenter, so I understand this particular environment. And in order to act as a political critic-analyst, you need to grow up to this.

Many celebrities go to people's deputies, for example. Would you go?

I don't like to be original for the sake of originality. The main thing is to understand why you are going there. If you become a deputy, you must do something. You must have a plan and the strength to carry it out. And I don’t want to become “one of them” for the sake of realizing my ego or badge. In addition, we can influence the world even without being a deputy. For example, meet students, inspire them, fulfill your social mission. I rarely talk about her, but I really like her. When I studied at the university, famous people also came to us, who inspired me. Therefore, you can do such simple things, because of which the eyes of young people will burn.

Your wife also worked in the media environment before pregnancy. Is Christina not afraid to remain in some kind of "creative shadow" near you?

You know, sometimes the shadow is stronger than the light. In any case, I support my wife in all her endeavors. Christina has great potential, and in the future I would like her to realize herself either in the media or in some other medium. But now she focused on the family, for which she is grateful. In addition, Christina has a very strong circle of support in social networks. She has her own audience of a young mother and a successful public wife.

Vanya (the eldest son of Grigory, - ed. note) is already used to the role of an older brother?

Yes, because we properly prepared him for the birth of Dima, when he was still in the womb. And this, first of all, is the merit of Christina, who went to a psychologist, consulted with him. By the way, she often tells me how to properly communicate with kids, and I, of course, listen to her advice. Today I have completely new emotions that I have never experienced before in 33 years. It's incredible when two sons feel and love each other so much. I can hardly hold back a stingy male tear when Vanya kisses Dima. Now the eldest son helps his mother. At first, of course, he could not calculate the strength and pull the baby by the arm or leg. But now he understands everything. Dima also feels his brother. Already began to smile with his cute toothless mouth. Of course, it is not easy for Kristina: she sleeps little, because Dimulya breaks all records. In his incomplete two months, he weighs almost 7 kg, our mother feeds him every 40 minutes. And I, in turn, take care of Vanya: I take him to kindergarten, three times a week for swimming, for English lessons. We try to keep up with the times with Christina, because our children are not like us. Recently I learned how to spin a spinner. And not because I wanted to. But because Vanya said: "Dad needs to be fashionable" (smiles).

your familycalled ideal. Do you agree with this?

Depending on what you mean. If we take into account the fact that Christina and I rarely quarrel, we love each other very much and we have wonderful children, then yes - we really are an ideal family. But for someone, ideality is constantly figuring out something, looking for some new sensations and emotions. I stand for family values. I will not stop repeating that you can do everything and combine: give birth to children, build a career, and so on. I am often asked how I find time for my family. Believe it or not: if you spend less time on social networks, you can spend more time with your family.

What has life taught you?

I am glad that life continues to teach me further. There are many things that are unexpected for me. And that's great. This is my experience. Life has taught me that you should always be responsible for your words and actions. When I found out that I would have another son, I realized the responsibility that fell on my shoulders. I realized that I would have to honestly look both sons in the eye, answer them honestly and conduct an honest dialogue with them. I want them to know that their father is a man of his word. That Grigory Reshetnik not only speaks, but also acts. I dream of being a good example. For example, now I force myself to go to the gym. I like myself and so-and-so (laughs), but when I see that my older child goes to the pool three times a week, I understand that I need to play sports. Of course, I want to look like a worthy and competitive man in the eyes of my wife. And finally, I want to be proud of myself. I have many plans and goals. I keep saying that careerism for a man is good, not bad. If a man has not fulfilled himself, then know that sooner or later, because of this, he can destroy everything that you have built together.

Elena Khudenko, No Taboo

famous dad and famous TV presenter, a native of Nikolaev Grigory Reshetnik talked about how he brings up his sons and who he wants to see them in the New Time STYLE project.

Grigory Reshetnik - famous Ukrainian TV presenter, announcer and showman. Together with his wife Kristina, he is raising two beautiful sons - Vanya (4 years old) and Dima (3 months old).

About education

I believe that the best parenting is the example you set for your son. First of all, this is an example of how you should treat your family, your children. My parents have been together for 35 years now, and this is a very strong family. Dad fell in love with mom 35 years ago, met for two months, he immediately proposed to her - and they got married. And it was a great example for me as a man, how to build your family. Dad is always inferior to mom. He is more balanced, perceives everything philosophically and can always yield. And this is a pattern for me. A man must be responsible for his words, must take care of the family. It is also important for a man to become someone, to take place, and in education - not to break a child, but to support.

O family traditions

My wife Christina Western Ukraine, and already from acquaintance with her, traditions appeared in our family. We always try to be together at Christmas and Easter and go to grandparents. In the Ivano-Frankivsk region, where Kristina is from, it is customary to gather at the table, and then go to everyone at the table, one by one to visit. Sit with me, move to you. The first time I barely survived seven feasts. But it is very unifying. Every year, for many years, at Easter we go to Christina's grandparents, in this village she began to go to church. And Vanechka goes to her, we plan that Dimulya too ( younger son) will go. Another good tradition: for seven generations in my family the names Vanya and Grisha alternate. I am Grigory Ivanovich, and my great-grandfathers were either Grisha or Vanya. On the first date with Christina, I told her so: “I have such a condition: if you are my wife, we will call our son Vanya.” Vanya was born, then we assumed that there would be a girl, but a boy was born. They thought about what to name their second son, and named Dima in honor of Kristin's dad.

About dreams

I want to have enough intelligence and paternal wisdom not to break him, so that Vanya finds himself. Very often I see young families, especially fathers, who torture their children either with some kind of sport, or with some kind of hobby, with their unfulfilled ambitions. Plus, we have such a society, everyone is used to rowing with the same brush: it is desirable that you be a lawyer, economist, banker. Of course, my profession is difficult in the sense that it is very interesting, creative, and one way or another, but from childhood, children get used to these conditions. Vanya has already starred in the Bachelor project, and in many other projects he frequent guest. So he falls in love with this process. And I don't want to break them, I want to support them. I don't know how it will turn out. Children have their own lives, and especially boys. And I will invest in education, in upbringing. Vanya learned to swim - he has been studying with a coach since he was a month old. I also went to learn to swim, I swim badly, but a son always wants to be proud of his father. It's a difficult mission, but I'm trying.

About plans for education

I like the phrase “it is not important where, but how”. I am convinced that the only thing worth saving on is the education of children. You need to invest to the maximum, in some way even infringe on yourself. But I want to have a return, so that the child likes it. I will guide, insist. A man must have some kind of vocation, profession. Today Vanya goes to a very good kindergarten, one of the best kindergartens in Kyiv, with the Montessori method, a free school and the right approach to children. We chose for a very long time, I traveled to eight kindergartens, private, public, so that later no one would have any complaints. We see progress, the joy of the child. Let's see how it will be with universities and schools. Now, in general, some non-traditional schools are in vogue. I'm not sure that these children, Vanya, Dima, will be able to sit in school for 12 years and study seven subjects a day. Mathematics, memorize the rules when there is already Google. In general, education moves from a memorizing and memorizing zone to a conscious one, children must learn to navigate situations, think, and create.

About games

It is very easy to play with my son now. Because he has great amount energy. These are role-playing games, some stories, reading books. We are building railways we play robots. I have a lot of humor and I joke all the time. I like it when a child laughs, it seems to me that it expands his perception of life, arouses new emotions in him. Today it is already difficult to imagine children without some kind of gadgets, we try not to use them, but we cannot do without cartoons. I also watch together with Vanya, you have to be in the subject and know what to play, what are the names of the characters, what is their story.

O family values

I want Vanya to have the same family as ours, so that he meets the only love, she became his wife, gave birth to many children, but I don’t know what will happen in 20 years and in general what my son will be like. Maybe he will be Alain Delon, and try to be here with one wife. Difficult [laughs]. But I instill respect for elders, respect and love for women. Let's say if I arrive with a bouquet of flowers, Vanya meets me at the door, I give him flowers, and he gives his mother from himself. He is very pleased, he sees that this is attention, he says later that he gave everything. We have one mother, and there are three of us men, so she is sacred.

About male qualities

I want him to have an inner core, so that he becomes strong like a man, so that he has his own position in life, adherence to principles. Still education, wisdom, purposefulness. inner strength. Well, probably, it has also historically happened that respect for mom, such respect for men for dad, can be less than for mom. And to my brother. Perhaps that's all, then let him live, he tries, he lives. The main thing is that some emotions, feelings are born in him, so that he gets high from life.
