Laughters, jokes, foods and drinks.
This is a picture of our mini family reunion. All members gathered in a small living room. Each one has its own stories tell, jokes to share and plate of foods to munch. It’s been a while since we had this gathering. And I can’t help being grateful that I have a family who respect and love each other.
We’re not perfect. We do have some issues in the past. We also had those moments that neither one of the family spoke to each other. But time do heals. It wasn’t easy to accept shortcomings and mistakes, but as long as pride is set aside, family comes together once again.
Both of my Mom and Dad’s family are in good terms. Isn’t it wonderful to just hear the happy laughters instead of being angry and shouting at each other. The past taught us many lessons and one of them is the value of family.
Hope you’re having a great day.

@cacay1 That is a very large family. I can understand why you would find it hard to recognize some of your family. It must be so much fun though.

@Happy2BeMe, Thanks. It wasn't planned though, but we had a fun night. 
Everyone just seem to agree and decided to have dinner at my Aunt's house. We brought foods. Sort of a potluck party.

When we get older, we finally get to know who the real friends are.

@JaboUK That is true. Good for you that you don't have any issues with your family. Mostly, that's what happens when in-laws have misunderstandings. I'm just glad they leave all their past behind.

The most precious thing God Blessed is Family. I too have a large family, I go to Sri Lanka end of January year to be there on the Feb.4 for my mothers Annual Recitation. The whole family meet at my mothers house, have recitation and food served for everybody in the afternoon. Then the family stay back for tea and updating about each and everything around us.

Yeah..certainly...This is life. There should be compromise everywhere. The world goes and runs with compromise, love, and mutual trust..not jealousy and hatred.
