A Bad News For Me

I am already packing some of my thing in the boarding house yesterday because of the thinking that we are soon to go home by the 19th. I am already planning the things that I have to do, we will be celebrating my mother's birthday, I will open another account for my online earnings, I will clean the house, I will update my children's accounts. But all of these things will just be a plan... We received a phone call that our stay in this place will be extended until the end of the month. I started to cry. I don't know ho I felt that time. It's been three long months of suffering on my part.
I really wanted to go home and stay there. But we cannot break the rule. I am almost done and this it not the right time for me to be sensitive or to be carried away by that news. I checked the calendar and counted the days. If I was able to stay for three long months, what is another ten days? Perhaps this is another kind of test of patience. Hope can we cope up with changes in plans and everything.
Thank you for reading my dear friends! I am still glad mylot is with me everywhere I go.

It's really disappointing when you have already been expecting and planning and then all of a sudden you find out it won't push through. But like what you said, what's a matter of a few more days compared to months.
Just hang in there and soon you will be home before you know it.

hi aries you will cope as we all can do more than we think we
can. just tie another knot in your rope and hang on. you will get there in due time and be happy in your new place, when the going gets tough we tough people will get going to cope and make things better too. I have learned to cope too and to survive in spite of things being turned upside down and feeling like we had been hit by a freight train,You can cope for just one month'and it will not be too hard.

That sucks you have to stay longer then they first said! Hopefully it won't be more then 10 extra days! I know you miss your family but I am sure will understand. I bet the extra days go fast and you will be home before you know it!

Hi, I don't know your circumstances Aries, so all I can suggest is that you take those ten days one at a time. I am glad that Mylot is comforting to you and I hope that your next move will be a better one.
Yesterday i was watching a film about Nelson Mandela, he said a poem helped him through the 16 years of hard labour he had to endure on Robin Island. One of the lines was ' I am the captain of my fate, I am the master of my soul.' The physical reality was the opposite, but he kept believing in himself and that got him through.

Hi ARIES1973,
Just like that, more or less the same thing happened to me just 2 days back. I bought a house recently and I got it from great struggle with lot of financial problems. I applied loan and it got delayed and at last my house was registered and everything got set on the right path. I thought I will get my house renovated in few days. So I planned with the right kind of mind set and started preparing for the new one.
Later the builder said that it will take atleast a month for the renovation and I was worried and started moving as time passed. So just need to wait for a month and a half to get into the new house.
So I mostly believe that when something takes time, it is going to be good.
Good luck.
Cheers, Have a nice day always.

It's ok to cry because of your disappointments. But the best is to be able to pick yourself back up and pass those feelings. Once you move on beyond your disappointment, everything will even be much better as you pass yet another, like you said, 'test' in life...

Changes always go faster.
I'm sorry to your situation.
it's OK you feel bad,bore and disappointment,cause all of us tend to behave like that.
Take a little break,and then let go the passive mood,arrage your new plan,enjoy your time.

Don't feel bad my friend 
Relax and everything will be fine.
Yes, sometimes we cannot avoid feeling that way when we are already prepared only to know that it's cancelled etc..
It's just few days ...

yeah you are right to have it the positive way. Must be hurting at first but it is just the matter of a few more days. we must not start expecting things like that that hurts like this. Be cool and all good will happen. everything happens for good and who knows God made this changes so that he might save you from some accidents. never know. So what ever happens, happens for good. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.
