ah, you have to have patience with them. I know its easier said then done, but they are overworked on those phones, and get angry ppl to the point that im sure they want to just throw their hands up and yell " F IT I QUIT". Theres only so much they can tell you, and its frustration for them. If they are rude with you, just be as nice as you can be to them, yes its unprofessional of them, but you dont know what that call right before you was like.

I hated the period that I had to wait apart from my husband for almost 4 years..but in all this period I learned so many things that helped me grow up.

I learned that I am a strog woman, I can do so many things all by myself,I learned to be patient , to realize the beauty of the moment.

I learned to be optimist and enjoy every single day, even the worse ones, I learned how to manage my own feelings of anger and frustraition.

I guess I 've become more confident , I got to knew myself better...I was almost alone through 2 pregnancies...I raised my 2 kids almost alone...did everytihng by myself..all this made be feel a strong woman.

But my husbadnd was alawys "there " for me.

I was alone only physically...but spiritually...he was always in my mind..in my heart..

I learned to feel good even though my husband was not with me all the time...I got pleasure even in Walking on the beach..driving...watching tv...listening to music...or just go shopping..reading a magazine...etc

I learned to appreciate simple things that make life beautiful.

I always wanted to be proud of me for this time...it would have been worthless to have only days of sorrw and frustration instead of good memories...memories that would make me look back in time with lots of nostalgia.

I also had many many many bad days..days that life seemed useless...But I hated when I felt like that, I hated when I was being weak and When It seemed for me to loose all hope in our love, in our future and our plans...

...It was evident that those feelings made our time more difficult and it only brought conflicts in our relationship.

So if I feel good ..he feels good...and if he feels good ,I feel good too. Good and strong!

I hated the goodbye moments at the airport :crying: ...But as much That I hated those moments..I loooooved the moments when his plane landed..and I wolud wait for him at the gate... (L)

For all this I am grateful ...for my husband, for our children :star::star: ..for life ...I am grateful to God ...for all of us being healthy ..for the love that we feel for eachother..for so many things...

I am grateful for all the time that I get to talk with my husband on the phone, when I can hear his voice, see him on the web cam ..I am grateful for the internet...for the technology...for mobile phones...for camers ..I am grateful that I can send him lots of photos with me and kids...that he sends photos too.

I am grateful that only by hearing his voice , or seeing him in the web cam I know how he is feeling..and he knows me too. I am grateful that we can't stay mad with eachother for more than 10 min :thumbs: ....that we always found ways with dealing with this looong distance relationship.

I am grateful for my in-laws( living in US) that always supported and encouraged us. :dance:

I am grateful that he became an American citizen..finally....

I am grateful that he can now apply for his family to come and live there with him :thumbs:

I am grateful for all the time when I am optimist and overcome my sadness...my blues.

I just realized something...and I'm grateful for it :innocent:

By the time my husband gets here (even if we get our approval today) - I will have finished with my schooling! Yipee!!!!!

I won't have to neglect him for study, or neglect my studies for him. That's a positive thing! This way when he gets here, I can focus 100% of my attention on him :wub:
