Be Yourself Even More!
This is so funny. But it's true.
Has it ever happened to you that some people do not like you just because you are being you?
It certainly has happened to me.
There may have been times when you don't know that those people do not like you (especially if they talk about you behind your back). But when they say it to your face, then that's when you can know for sure, without having to guess.
In my life, there haven't been that many occasions when people say it to my face. But the one that lives in my memory so vividly and has taken me so much time trying to heal from is when my in-laws said it directly to me.
Being a Thai person in Thai society, there are certain rules are a Thai lady, especially a daughter-in-law,

I'm Exactly Where I'm Supposed To Be
This morning I woke up worried again. I'm applying for a green card for my husband. (I'm a US citizen.) And from reading up on it, I need to be able to sponsor him financially.
However, my income in the past few years are wayyyy below the poverty line as specified by the US government (https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p). And I have only been working in Thailand. I've heard that the sponsor needs to work in the US and pay taxes to the US government. I also have a condo in Thailand that my mom bought me about 5 or 6 years ago. Hopefully that would work. (I'm waiting to speak to my lawyer, who is very busy at the moment. My appointment should be in about 2-3 weeks time.) I do have relatives in the US, but none of them is willing to sponsor or co-sponsor my husband.
Seems like the problem, yet again, is money.
We have been thinking of alternative ways. It would work if my husband applies for a job in the US and gets it before we move there. Perhaps he could get a work permit that way. OR I just have to become a very very successful blogger and make a lot of money within a year or two.
This morning I came across a facebook post by Ariella Iorio from the Done-For-You Services affiliate marketing program that I purchased a while ago. It says that:
"The minute you allow your mind to go to that place of concern, worry, afraid that it starts to build, you have to learn to catch your mind in that moment, catch your mind, and stop that negative direction with an immediate positive thought. Find something that you can grab, that is going on in your life that feels positive and uplifting. There is always always always something in your life to be grateful for. Find it, focus on it, think about it."

So, immediately, I shifted my thought to be this one:
I trust that once I made up my mind and started walking on my divine path (which I'm doing right now by being who I am , unapologetically, through writing this blog), doors will start to open. I completely trust in the Universe that all is going to be fine. I'm exactly where I'm meant to be right now. There's no need to know all the answers right now. Then I think of the things that I'm grateful for. I'm so grateful that at least I have a place to live right now (at Wing 7 Air Force Base in Southern Thailand) and that I'm still healthy, safe from Covid, and that I have food to eat and clean water to drink and clean air to breath.
