I was feeling down yesterday, you see, I am able to work here in the US because of the H1b visa, and the end of its validity is nearing. Not being able to see the future is frustrating! So I allowed myself to be engulfed by it. Bad idea! – The therapy? Writing! Before I slept, I know everything will work out for good.
5 years ago,
I knew about H1b’s dual intent; I just wasn’t sure why I didn’t push for permanent
residence in my dreams. Back then, I was fearful of the future, will my kids
grow up not respecting us? Will they grow up mouthing bad words, just like in
the movies? It was a valid fear since I have no idea what’s in store for us.
Now, 5 years
after, 2 years being here in New Mexico, I know my kids are ok. We are in a
place where I know we are ok, our future looks good. Unlike what I’ve
seen in the movies, there’s really nothing to be afraid of.
I still don’t
know what the future will hold for us with the visa I have, but what I am
certain is that God is working for good. It’s just a matter of time and I
believe He will make all things possible for us.
I believe it’s
been done. No worries anymore. He’s in control.
To God be
the Glory!
