Forgiveness Biscuits

I'm stuck... As some of you might know it. The wedding plans have to be put on a hold.. Its cold war time again.. I really wonder how long this is going to last.. its almost 2 weeks. I'm tired... Why must a wedding be so difficult? Why can't moving out be a celebration? I wonder if most people have forgotten what's a marriage. Its as though everything we are doing from the house to the ceremony is for people. I wish I could just walk up get married and move off. Mebbe its just too much symbolism and most people for get (Which leads to all these extra recovenant marraige ceremony)

Hmmm its ironic though reading through Joseph... seeing the whole favouritism thing affect my dad and his brother.. reminds me of Jacob and Esau. The seperation and not coming back. Looking back at my parents leaving the family and ignoring their parents... Well.. it seems like its now my turn to do such things. The only difference perhaps that this is not what I really hope to happen. God is speaking and as I walked to the shop and collected the mooncakes for Deb, i remembered sharing during staff worship sometime back on forgiveness biscuits. Thye Lee Tau sa piah. If its so possible that i can even go back to the shop and get the biscuits, then mebbe forgiveness is possible. We've got a heritage in this business and i wonder if there were no forgiveness would things be lost? (Am looking back at how Joseph forgave his brothers and in the process preserved the line of Israel)

And so... the day must come where i speak to parents, to enjoy the family once more.. but when can this be?
