Woke up early this morning, 2 AM to be exact to pack up for my trip to New York (yes, I left it to the last few hours to pack haha). We left the garage at 5 AM and it took till 2:20ish PM to get into Brooklyn. We got lost a few times (even with a GPS) but other than that, the trip there was smooth going.
Reason for going to New York was because my uncle (mother's side) was having his wedding this Saturday. Unfortunately the Waterloo Convocation for Engineering Students is also on Saturday. So I will have to miss it =(. O well.. I'll visit Waterloo some other time hopefully.
We went to have dinner with families from both sides. It was good meeting them. We had Mexican; it was okay..meh, a little expensive for my taste..heh. Anyways, had some good talks. Near the end of the dinner, my aunts and uncle had a little argument. Nothing big, but I felt like I wanted to say something to help out. We're called to be peacekeepers, but I know that it's not an easy. I didn't really know what I could have said or what I could have done. Another thing is that I myself don't feel right if I said anything because I know that I can make an argument out of small little things also. I want to be able to know what to say, to be able to see with God's eyes, and to be able to be patient and think things out thoroughly without making an argument out of nothing.
Can we be peacekeepers that others may see that we are God's children through the love we show?
