This conversation really touch my heart. It strikes my previous thought. I may not happy because of the conflict between others and I. I do no have idea. I do what I could. I always want back the relationship as good as previously. For me, there are my golden memories. However, things change. I could not expect everything will be the same.
I should learn to accept the fact and look forward rather than look backward. Yes. Indeed, memory is sweet.
Life will become miserable if we always hold on the same expectation. Live in ancient time.
LIVE in the present is very IMPORTANT.
Yesterday is a memory, today is a gift and tomorrow is a hope.
" This is how my father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart." Mat18:35

As father forgive me for many times. It is a time I learn to forgive others more than 77 times. : P
