You Are Delusional

I have some friends that tell me I am delusional. Since my whole life has been based on Faith and dreaming big, and that has worked for me. I have to keep doing it.
For example, some people told me I would never graduate high school but I did anyway.
I got turned down for a student visa to the United States on my first application. I got it the next time applied.
The admission counselors at my first US college told me there are no scholarships available for international students ( which I was before I got married)and I found scholarships anyway.
Do you know that international students are charged three times the tuition that US Citizens are charged? Some people told me I won’t be able to graduate. I graduated anyway.
When I graduated, everyone in my class tried to get a job at Texas Medical Center. Everyone said it is extremely hard to get a job there. I got a job there anyway.
So to the people who tell me I am delusional, well my delusion has helped me. The same people turn around and say I am a freeloader and I am the type of person who is always trying to manipulate the system. Yes my “friends” have told me that to my face. Then they are on my social media everyday commenting. So I removed them from my friend list. If you don’t believe in my delusions, why are you on my page everyday? Seriously.
My life has never been normal. I walk by faith and not by sight. God keeps on giving me these big dreams and I believe if he gave me a vision, he will make the way for the vision to become reality. So until then. I just can’t tolerate the negativity. You can keep that.

Job Hunting

Ok, so i go for this job interview and first of all the place is far away from the rest of civilization. I have to walk a couple of blocks to find the place. Then the complex is so huge I cant even find the HR department. Then finally out of luck i run into an employee who shows me where they have hidden their HR office. So I finally arrive just in time to start the interview. Next thing is that they give me some type of test that they use named , " How To Tell If This Person Is An Idiot!" How dare they give me this stupid test. I rush through the test because I really dont have times for these games. i want to hurry up and get to the real interview. I feel so insulted because after i waste my time and energy to go there, i get a rejection letter. I dont like this type of procedure. I feel like I was treated as if I was a product on a job hunting factory line. Not as an individual, but as a robot with a name tag that they can just experiment with, waste my time and then han

Memories: How I Was Able To Afford a Trip To Paris at 22 Years Old

One of the highlights of my life.At 22 yrs old, I worked at McDonald's and WHSmith's in Europe, made enough money to pay for a day trip to Paris which cost about £50 and even had money to pay part of my fees owed to the University of the West Indies. The greatest feeling of my life to have 2 jobs, money in my pocket that I earned ( didn't beg, borrow, steal or scam anyone) and accomplish some of the goals on my bucket list ( list of things to do before I die).

Angry Young Men

Angry Young Men When I first came to the US, I was thinking about joining the military. I thought that I should just sign up.After living in the US for a few years, I started realizing that not everyone who signed up for the military got all the benefits that were promised. One of the things I found most alarming was that many of the homeless people wandering the streets were… Veterans! I am a “unique” person. When I say I am “unique”, I mean if someone comes up to me and begs me some money, I start a conversation with them, trying to find out why they are homeless and why I should give them my money. I was surprised to see how intelligent some of these “homeless” “street people” are. I am wondering, if these people can have an intelligent conversation, why are they homeless? Why cant they get a job and support themselves? It is so sad. That most of these people are veterans. Of couse you know I want to save the world, and I want to help these people. These brave people who went to fig
