As I was on my way to work today, I reminded myself to be mindful of the people I interact with. I was able to listen to others with a more empathetic mind and accept them as they are, without judgment.

While my sister was staying at my place, I tried to keep the peace, even though she’s not the easiest person to be around.

I talked with my neighbor about the recent events, and we both agreed that we must avoid war at all costs. We also talked about how South Korea nearly experienced tragic violence due to the declaration of martial law, but was resilient enough to transition back to a democratic process thanks to awakened people. Wishing for peace everywhere in the world.

I prayed for the world peace during morning practice.

I gave a ride to a senior member who did not have a ride to get to the Park Golf field.

I read articles to better understand the nuanced context and history of the conflicts in the Middle East.

I discussed the war in Iran with my family, and the consequences it's going to have for the rest of the world.

I became frustrated with my dad because he was repeating topics we already made decisions on the day before. I could have not reacted so quickly and be more aware. He’s just absorbing a lot of new experiences and it’s okay to repeat if he needs it. In some ways I’m worried if his health is okay when he repeats himself more than I think he should or reacts slowly.

Amid the unsettling news about the bombing in Iran, I feel anxious about the consequences. Still, I do my best to stay calm and stay informed as the situation unfolds.

I offered a heartfelt prayer for the de-escalation of the conflict in the Middle East. I thought that if I cannot find anything I can do at this moment, then what I *can* do is to devote myself sincerely to prayer — as a way of conveying my heart.
