God provides

My last post said we were looking for a home and thank God, we found one. Although it has no bedroom, we are happy to have a roof under our head. The living room becomes our bedroom. The rent is a bit costly but we can't really complain.
So that's that.

In retrospect, I have been with unrequited love from my school years up to even the month before my marriage. During all these time, I have expressed my love in varying ways to all the girls I liked. For it is my desire that the other person knows my feelings. I don't like playing games, nor wasting time. Pain and sadness often follows these expression of love episodes. Girls move on all too quickly.

Now, tomorrow will be our second wedding anniversary. Ron has been in my life for two years now. Wow! Of course our marriage was arranged, that we were strangers but that doesn't matter because there's love between us. I had no job and she said yes. Yesterday, she was asking me when will she see me being angry at her. Surely there are fights, the sulking and the silence but in the end love brings us back. I am usually the silent one and who takes all her wrath. But I don't mind because, most if not all the time, it's my fault. Besides, I rarely retaliate, be it her or anyone for that matter.
She is patient with me and encourages me to take risks in life and above all loves me the way it should be.

I'm just beginning my family life and since I am still without a job, I have applied for few jobs and I am waiting for the outcome. As always God provides. 

Work

Thank God for I got my work permit. Now all I have to do is find a job. Yesterday I have applied to the Office of the Clerk for an editorial position. They had asked for references but since all my references are in India, I didn't fill it in. But I said I will produce it once it's demanded. Now then there is the issue of not knowing much Maori. I'm new to New Zealand but I think I can learn the language and culture as I go.
Now if I am accepted.. man! .. that's what we call..a miracle.
But I am grateful to God for at least leading me to this opportunity. Thank you Father.

New Year it is

Onto 2018 and I thank God for keeping me safe, healthy and happy. I don't have a job yet, but that's because I can't legally work. Once I am granted work rights, I hope to get a job. Till then depending on Ron.
But the most pressing matter is we are running out of time to get a new home. Our current agreement is getting over soon. Since New Zealand has high rates of homeless people, it's no wonder that there are few homes in the market.
Because Ron is the only one who puts bread on the table, anything beyond $250 per week is not even worth looking.
Now this is what I call irony is: We have one home in India that's empty and another in Ireland that's for rented.
Again casting our eyes to the sky hoping God do something. It's not that we haven't gone house hunting, it's either expensive or not to our liking or our application not being processed.
