It's been a while but never has a day passed by without me thinking of you, daddy. I am so thankful and grateful for the opportunities I've had so far. I know without my angel and God guidance I wouldn't have been able to do what I did and what I am doing. I was lucky enough to be able to travel to a country that I never thought I would be in a million years and it was such a wonderful experience. I don't know how I did it but I was able to face and overcome every challenge possible. From language barriers - written and spoken - culture shock - I survived 8 months - commute to and from work, food - reason why I had to leave, housing - I was very lucky to get my own place, people - good and bad - and so much more. Trust me without my faith that God and my guiding angel I don't think I would have been able to accomplish this major feat. I couldn't update this site because of the country's internet policy of what can been seen in the county. I finally made it back to where God had led me and got a wonderful job. In memory of our dad and in honor of God,  my mom, sister, brother and myself were able to do things this year that at first seems impossible but somehow we were able to get it accomplished. In this country that I am in right now, a lot of countries have been turning a blind eye to what the people are suffering under. It amazes me that for geopolitical location - this is a story for another site - people have been killed, children taken away from their families as punishment, academics losing their jobs, water has been cut from the populations -different areas- during the holiest month of the religion, an entire ethnicity has been targeted and persecuted, churches have been turned over to a group loyal to the ruling party and the list goes on. What's more surprising is that all of these social sites help this government to suppress these voices that are calling out for help because the government pays them. I know that these sites, news broadcast and so on are in the business of making money but I have to question when will humanity and dignity kick in. In the meantime, my family came together and we were able to get people from the community (as per government rule, people who were not born in that area cannot enter that area and they check IDs) to help us box up food for families. We were not able to get the boxes because that area is basically in the village so these people that we got went and bought things that were in the boxes last year and put them together for the families. This shows me that if there's a will, there's a way and with all my heart I have to believe that God and my angel made this all possible. I have very few pictures of the boxes put together but once I have enough memory I will upload them. This is a belated, Merry Christmas, Happy New Years, Happy Birthday and Happy Father's day in Heaven daddy. Love, hugs and kisses...
