I have lost my other half. I am now a single father I have to raise my only child all by myself and I don't think i can do that all by myself.

I must guise in front of her so that she doesn't feel sad and become stronger and i'll always try making her feel as if she was home. At first, I knew things will go difficult but I'm hoping we will get used to it and we will always try to be stolid and forget about the past.

Now that I'm here, wondering our new city, hand in hand. We realized that everything was different from the place we came from the western side. New technology, escalators moving upwards and downwards that were placed everywhere. Blonde hair people, blue eyes, unusual food and places and how people treat each other. For now, I'm finding for a job and to put my daughter in school for education.

Months have passed, and we started to get used to their culture and their way of people. However, I really want juliet to know that i have tried really hard to do everything i can for the sake of both us and that i will always have great fortitude in me and will never give up, as she is my source of power left in me and i cannot live without

    After moving though, I can say that one of the hardest things for myself personally was leaving my family and friends behind. The second time around was definitely easier due to the fact that the second time I left I was thirteen and in high school (in England you start high school in grade seven). When I came back to England after being away for fifteen months I rekindled with all my childhood friends and we all went off to high school together. After my first year in high school I was saying good bye to all my childhood friends again, and this time the new friends that I had made. Since we have moved back to Canada we have not been able to afford to go back and visit at all, which has made us all very homesick.…
