Immigrant "odi et amo"

During the first period living in a country as an immigrant you could test the incredible contrast existing in your soul every day, every time.
Your internal contrast about food, mindset, languages, cultures and so on... You know..like a new planet! 


"Hey She, look at that person. What a strange clothes!"
"Hey She, I can't understand how it's possible they like so much this food! Eh... our country food is totally different....."
"Hey, I'll never pronounce this word in this stupid way! It's a ridiculous sound!"

"They are really open minded!"
"There's a very large amount of professional opportunities in this country!"
"Oh my God, even the old people can still do these things without caring of the other people opinion. Amazing!"
One day you wake up and think:"Oh my god!!! I dreamed in this language!" and decide: stop moaning for everything! You wanted to be born again here, in this country, so let the things go on!
Stop with this continuous comparison!
You must think: it's like you landed on Mars! Of course everything seems weird during the first period but now you just realized your colleague is so friendly and funny and you can communicate. Good!
