Family Reunion
Family reunion is great and really fun.
We used to visit one another during festive seasons, some happy occasions or some memorial services.
Most of the time, we will give a call and come in group to visit a brother or a sister.
Then we regroup and "attack" another brother or sister. And the journey continues....
It is really fun when we visit with very short notice... the owner of the house has to hurry to get everything ready fast.
Then the time comes when we ourselves are being attacked in group......
Then all the laughter, happiness and love.....
We will take out all the best things we have to serve one another.
It is really heart-warming to be together after missing each other for so long.
Absence makes the heart fonder and the mind wonder......
But the moment we meet and hold each other's hands, that is all the matters....
The families have multiplied and the children have grown... the physique, the attitude and behavior all have changed...the way of life, the customs... have also changed.
But then we are filled with our many sweet memories and stories.
And after sometimes, we will just look at one another silently... and smile.
All have changed........
Some of us have entered our middle age... and some have hastened to the old age.
Then the stories continue......
We talk about ourselves, our children, our grandchildren, and our great grandchildren...
Everyone seems so different, but we are smiling from ear to ear.
Who would have thought that family reunion was great and really fun?

I never attending any when I was young, my folks didn't enjoy them and so we didn't go. I'm disappointed because some family members I never got to meet. I love history, I do family genealogy and would have enjoyed that. Now it's too late, those that came before me are gone.
More families should get together, distances though make that hard.
