I haven’t been on here in awhile and im not feeling the best currently and I could use some advice and help

Hey everybody!, I hope everyone is working hard and doing well and being safe. I’ve been doing well myself with working and hanging out with family and friends, im trying to get back to being active in here but I’ve been doing a lot of the little work behind the scenes, like I just bought me a hat press machine and I have plans to make a brand that sells hats and beanies( for right now) and im just getting the ground running with it and going after my dreams. 2025 has been a weird year for me a multitude of losses and it has definitely been hectic but im persevering and gaining new blessings and knowledge and strength, im grateful for the people around me who are supporting me and keeping me upright on this journey. Keep going after your goals and dreams guys, I’ve been feeling nervous and scared about what if it doesn’t work but im tired of living in that feeling and going after what I want and I will make it happen because I have a dream and a passion to fulfill it. I pray everyone stays healthy and well and I also pray that everyone achieves what they desire and pray over everyone’s happiness because we all deserve the abundance of love and happiness!!

Hey, my name is Tiara. I joined the community a while ago and it’s my first time posting on here. Personally it has been a challenge for me to communicate with people due to social isolation. I’ve been so used to being by myself for so long where I hesitated to reach out and talked to people, even people online. So I’m taking baby steps. If you’re someone who’s currently struggling with this or overcame it, please share your experience.

i just wanted to pop in and say hi since I haven’t talked to you guys in a while, how is everyone? I’m interested to know what’s been going on whether is good or bad, but either way I hope overall you guys are well🫶🏻.

Hey, y’all. I hope you’re all doing well as you read this. I wanted to give you an update on how life’s been for me lately. Be prepared to get bored to tears with this one because it’s pretty long-winded. I’m going to do my very best to keep it brief. Honestly, where do I even begin? I don’t even want to talk to anyone about this. But then again, I never had anyone to talk to, to begin with. I guess I’ll just cut right to the chase. I’m in pretty rough shape. I’ve been living in Canada for the better part of the past 6 years, and my dream of settling here looks very bleak at the moment. After two consecutive refusals on my post-graduation work permit (one at the beginning of the year and one a couple days back), I’m left with no legal authorization to work or study further, thereby rendering me out of status in the country. I’m not going to get into the details of the rejections, as that info is irrelevant. The big caveat is that there’s a strong possibility that I may have to voluntarily leave the country and fly back home. Having already paid half of the tuition for the diploma program in nursing and continuing care that I had planned to do, it’s starting to feel like a complete mess and potential waste of time and money, considering the fact that I’m just a sitting duck and not being insulated from the egregious consequence of leaving Canada for good. The only sliver of hope for me is to apply for a temporary resident permit (TRP) on humanitarian and compassionate grounds. By acknowledging past rejections, why they took place and how I’m resolving my current immigration conundrum in the eyes of the Canadian government, I’m holding on to the naïve hope of them seeing things from a much broader perspective and maybe approving my request for a TRP. I completely understand that to some, this situation may seem too trivial to contemplate, and as such, I’m trying not to make a big deal out of this myself. However, this is just one of those things where you feel like your entire world is going to hell in a hand-basket, and you can’t help but associate this setback with the worst things imaginable. Maybe this is the universe’s way of telling me that I fucked up in the past, and this is my penance. Maybe I’m in over my head. There’s a whole lot of ‘maybes’ that are moshing inside my head. Right now, I’m staying focused on my health and well-being by working out, eating right, and praying as often as possible for the strength to get through this trying time. This may come off as selfish to some as everybody has a natural propensity to think that they’re the right ones in their stories, but I think that accepting things for what they are is letting God know that I’m resilient and not giving up on my dreams, regardless of how distant they may be.
