I am slowly getting used to the USA. Just right now! Only after almost 4 years. I am starting seeing things I haven’t noticed before about culture and mentality. I am also starting noticing that many of the routine things, I have done daily in Russia, are happening here every day as well, like unlocking the door when there is no outside light, or cutting a tomato (well, it’s a little difficult to explain). I just stared getting “the comfort” back to the point, where I can see beyond the things I have to take care of and that’s very good, I am feeling more relaxed ❤️
If you came from another country/culture and your life has been very busy and different since then, please, just try to turn off your mind for a few minutes and notice that there are actually many similar moments that connects your current and past lifestyles, it should make you feel a little warmer❤️
I often say that we should live in the current moment, but sometimes it’s necessary to remember those warm things from your past or maybe childhood. Maybe it won’t change the situation, but it will at lease make you feel warm and protected for a minute. And it is very important for people who have gone through such a big change: moving to another side of the world, knowing that it’s not going to become their home right away just because they were not raised there. You are strong❤️ Love and ✌️
