RE: A Letter to my Friend who is still in Kharkiv, Ukraine

in Life Stories2 years ago

You are a very good person, kind and devoted, and you have a gentle soul. You feel lonely in a foreign country, and I feel in my own ... But at least I'm at home.

There are completely different people. My friend's friend went to Germany, then to Portugal, then to Spain. She has a job and she feels very well. It looks like a great excuse (or a chance) to travel around Europe almost for free and enjoy life. Her friend and I stayed in Kyiv all the time. And she never wrote to any of us, never asked if we were alive. This is... weird and wrong.

Please, don't push yourself to stay positive. You don't have to be positive all the time, just try to find at least one positive thing that happened to you today, and focus on it. You know, on those 3 hardest first weeks, before fall asleep, I said every night "Thank you for I am alive". It was definitely a damn positive thing :D It helped me to sleep well.❤️

Well, I guess I have seen such kind of people around me after all I have gathered a lot of experiences in person. I could have taken this opportunity and could have traveled the whole of Europe but I am not in that shape and this is not me. I don't blame anyone, I sometimes blame myself. I try to stay connected with my Ukrainian friends and helped many of them. I am sorry that you are experiencing such moments in life but this is a lesson for us, you know now who is your true friend...

Trust me I try, but sometimes I can't. Sometimes I get so angry that I can't control my emotions and ask myself, why me!!! Well, it sounds selfish but sometimes my overwhelming feelings push me into dark moments...

I know what you mean. I am angry pretty often. Just few days ago I found out that ... I loose 500$ of my salary when pay off my credit. My salary was equal to monthly pay, before war, now I am bankrot, because I need +500$ that I don't have. I wanted to cry out loud - why now?? Oh... these are very hard days. War continues, and lufe continues. Life must win. We must hold on. Maybe a summer time will bring you more opportunities for relax, weekend trip, meeting with people. Hold on, dear 🤗🤗🤗

Ah, credit limit, I am not dealing with it... 300$ pending and I need to pay it within this month. LOL. Also, my health insurance got canceled and I didn't get any payment from my last job, they said that they can't pay me anymore... I was angry but there is nothing much I can do because I know my company people are dealing a lot now. I am looking for a job here so that I can earn some money to pay my credit card bill... Hahaha...

I am so sorry to hear that you are going through a lot but I really hope soon we will see bright days...

That's sucks, about your job 😒 Can you work on the remote? Or do something online? Hope Hive earnings help you at least a little. And hope you will find a job soon.

Concerning my debt, it's not a credit card limit. It's a loan agreement for 2 years for a large sum, payment schedule and a large penalty for delay. $500 is a difference between the amount I payed before war and amount that I payed just today. 😳 I have money for 3 payments (eq 3 months), and then... we'll see. Hope things will not get worse

Nah, now I am looking for a job in Holland... At least better to do something rather than live in the shelter the whole time...

Oh, I am sorry, I got that entirely wrong... I hope you will fix and solve everything soon...

Things are getting crazy every day... Everything became so expensive in Kharkiv suddenly...

Not only in Kharkiv...
I agree with you, better to do something than stay in shelter, that's for sure. Wish you good luck in Holland 🤞

Thanks, dear, take care of yourself...
