I can surely feel your pain. I went back home to visit my family a few months ago and let me tell you... they eat, drink, sleep, and breathe the organization. My mother is a full time Pioneer and I stayed at her house while I was visiting. Saturday bookstudy was held at my mother's home, and when I returned to my mother's home that morning after being out all night... she had introduced me to all of her friends. Here I am, both ears pierced, dreadlocks, and a carefree attitude. You should have seen the looks and stares that I was given. I loved it. My cousin tried to give me a serious preaching to, but I told him that I'm not trying to hear any of that. I was respectful. I think that is the real key. You have to be as respectful as you can. Yes, they are going to say things to you that are going to aggravate the crap out of you, but remember the purpose for your visit. Eventually, you'll be heading back home.
You can only love them.
