Alhamduliliah, this reminds me of one of my favorite ayat from the Qur'an

Asad's translation

IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE DISPENSER OF GRACE

[94:1]

HAVE WE NOT opened up thy heart,

[94:2]

and lifted from thee the burden

[94:3]

that had weighed so heavily on thy back?

[94:4]

And [have We not] raised thee high in dignity?

[94:5]

And, behold, with every hardship comes ease:

[94:6]

verily, with every hardship comes ease!

[94:7]

Hence, when thou art freed [from distress], remain steadfast,

[94:8]

and unto thy Sustainer turn with love.

Two Hearts, Two Different Places, Sharing One Dream

We were strangers~ Starting out on a journey~Never dreaming What we'd have to go through ~Now here we are ~ And I'm suddenly standing ~ At the beginning with you ~ No one told me I was going to find you ~ Unexpected ~ What you did to my heart ~ When I lost hope You were there to remind me ~ This is the start ~ Life is a road And I want to keep going ~ Love is a river I wanna keep flowing ~ Life is a road Now and forever ~ Wonderful journey ~ I'll be there When the world stops turning~ I'll be there When the storm is through ~ In the end I wanna be standing At the beginning with you~

I'm going to butt in with a momentary "blither-moment". You guys know I've backed away from the forum due to my own emotional struggles these days. Still haven't found a job but I'm looking as hard as I can. But you know the old saying "every cloud has a silver lining"? It appears even this one has a silver lining...

My parents have not been accepting at all of my relationship with Mohammed for many reasons. Most of them stemming from his ethnicity. I don't blame them. They are the consumate "Ward and June Cleever" and I know this has been difficult for them to bend their sensibilities around. But because of my current hardship it has opened dialogue for us and I think they are beginning to see the man he is, that he is not using me, and that we are actually very and extremely serious about having a life together. They have gone so far now to offer their assistance should we need it after he arrives, to help HIM not just me.

I'm just sitting here all teary because this is a HUGE answered prayer. I wanted Mohammed to feel he had family here, it's what he wants so badly. So big brother, if you're watching, if my own PARENTS can accept this relationship as real and honest, why can't you?

JW... I am soooooooooooo happy to have read this thread... and saw your post. Family is very important... and Thank God for opening doors... not only in your family... but in the business world... still praying for ya!

*hugs*
