Laughter Can Reach Heaven

In my country, the Philippines, we use the phrase "abot hanggang langit" (reaching heaven). With this topic, I wanted to describe the people who are living in front of our house. "Ang tawa nila ay abot hanggang langit" (Their laughter is reaching heaven). It has been many days since they have had lots of visitors, and they are celebrating their newly installed gate. It sounds weird, but they do. Take note that the owner of the house is a pastor. Thus, they've been pestering us for a few days now. Can you tolerate dealing with these people?

for the newly installed gate, they have to celebrate it that way? what more if it is someone's birthday?

@rakski Instead of getting angry with them, I was laughing that they are celebrating the gate. @Icydoll

I don't know. I rarely hear our neighbors even if they're outside. We like it to stay quiet outside.

I also do want that kind of ambiance. It is a good thing that I am so martyr enough to tolerate them these past few days.

@Shavkat There are fines for making too much noise here.

@DaddyEvil They are lucky that I did not call the police patrol at night. The pastor will know that it was me who called them. We had a great fight before. It is not physically, but received words that he cannot swallow.

I really cannot understand why they did it. Since he is a pastor, the followers kept flocking these past few days. It is a residential house and not a church.

@LadyDuck I am also wondering why they did this. According to research, their religion never celebrate anything like this. They cannot even celebrate birthdays and the like.

@Shavkat - I agree that this is a weird thing that he did.

Happy is always good to hear. But I would like to see the gate that has made them that happy

I would take a shot if there is a chance. I do not want them to see me doing it.

Our neighbours are noisy too but with years I have learned how to handle them.

I used to handle noisy neighbours in my previous neighborhood. Now, I am just dealing these people in front of us. I continue to ignore them to prevent from having a scene. It is not worth it if it happens.

@Shavkat It's best to keep away from noisy people and let them handle their own issues.

If they have an event or an occasion, I would let it be for now.

@Shavkat That's good. Let's see here. If they still do that, most likely I will report them to the admin.

It's nice that they have something to celebrate. Hopefully it wouldn't worry me too much.

I took it lightly and laughed about how weird they are.

Pretty soon they will complete their celebrations. If they continue too long you will have to ask them politely to please be quieter.

I would not bother to talk with them. I just call some policemen to tone them down. In the past, we did have a close encounter with this pastor and it was not a good conversation.

I think it's because they are happy

A happy day needs to do it in the right time and place. Laughing until past midnight is not an acceptable thing to do. What do you think?
