Doing the same thing over and over expecting the same results- but that's what got Edison to invent the necessity that is the lightbulb. After his 10,000+ try he got it right. I'm sure he tweaked his approach each time but he kept at it. Hmm..I'm in the same situation of sorts. I have tried every avenue to stay in this crazy but enjoyable country still no dice. This whole America being in a recession really sucks bricks for talented internationals to obtain a job. So I'm on my way out unless magical things start happening and I get a job, a new apt (bc I just let my lease go), and a new VISA. Ahhhh..minor details to Jesus if He wants it done...so I hear..or believe?
But I'm SO HAPPY I pushed through every barrier and impossibility till now. I have no regrets except some credit card purchases I could've done without (lol- I was SUCH a shopaholic). Those attractive sales are the devil to me. However, after going through all the tumultuous times of being unemployed for four months- I am so grateful for all the lessons I learned. For all the trials I went through, the humility I gained, the priceless wisdom received- I walk away so satisfied and happy. America- you have given me the precious gift of a more seasoned maturity. Í'm grateful for life. Maturity you can't buy that, can't just build that- it takes some straining and testing life experiences to transform you. My soul is happy- completely at peace with the course of events.
I'm happy to walk away a more stable, sincere, and seasoned adult. Who can ask for more? Out of such sour lemons came the sweetest lemonade :-)
Peace & Love
Christie
