I saw this site on another forum in VJ... someone had added the VJ group... Please visit and light a candle for everyone who is going through this journey.

Thanks.

This was one of the first questions he asked me... would I one day go back to Iran with him and live there? He asked me this the 2nd week I had met him.... My answer was "if I love you I will go to the end of the world with you"... cheesy, ha? But I really meant it... and I still do...

Later on he told me he would never forget my answer.... I think I scored

hear hear...

Hi all,

17 years ago today was the saddest day of my life... My dad had a sudden heart attack and passed away... I wasn't home... I was at my best friend’s house...

I can't believe 17 years has past... I miss him so much.... I know he would have liked my fiancé a lot. The first time I saw my SO he said something that my dad always used to say... bittersweet... I wish both were here now...

We’re off to dinner tonight to have his favorite food, Pizza...

for my dad

Hugs, Yasi

Thanks Jean...

I must not have had enough coffee yet, cuz when I saw the title of this thread I was thinking about something else Let's just say it brought back so many memories of our webcam days.

Jackie

hahaha... i thought the same thing jackie, and thought "hmmm... that's a little personal"

Me too...It shows where our minds is

Ya'll want to hear a strange dream? Well, ok...

First, my sweetie keeps his computer and our chats open through the night while I sleep. When he is finished with his work, he sends me a "Good Morning Beautiful" message to find when I wake up. Thursday night, while sleeping, I had the most intense dream.

I dreamt that I got a phonecall from a number I did not recognize. I answered and it was a guy from immigration who said he was working on our petition, but he needed me to come into the office right away and clarify something. I said of course and immediately the dream scene changed to me in his office, opposite sides of a desk, he had our papers spread out in front of him. He had a wicked grin on his face, I could tell I didn't trust him. He said "Why do you want to do a fiance visa? Why not do some other type like a student visa?" I replied "Because we are in love and we want to be married and live our lives together, he doesn't have any interest in returning to school." The man "Well, there is just no way I can approve this visa on any grounds but furthering education so I have to deny the K-1" I started to cry hysterically and beg and plead ... I remember saying to him "Please please look at our pics, look at our letters and chats he loves me soooooooooo much" He laughed and said "Oh, I have no doubts about your love, I have read it all and the sap is enough to make anyone sick, but I can't approve him on any basis other than furthering education. Sorry denied." I was a wreck crying sobbing, they made me leave his office and outside the door, i woke up.

When I woke in my bed, i was truly crying and shaking... sat up, trying to shake off the emotional dream leftovers. Saw the computer and that my sweetie had logged off, decided to read his sweet message and hoped it would make me feel better. It did... then I saw I had email alerts, clicked them, and guess what I found?

Two emails from USCIS... we were approved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BTW in dreams, a telephone = telepathy

So pay EXTRA attention to those phone calls in your dreams, someone is trying to tell you something.

OMG... I had goosebumps all over me when I read this...

I would take you on your offer to pm you about my dream... I'll keep it short... I hope

When I have a dream I wonder what it means... I know it means something. Some of them are SO vivid that I am amazed... Do you believe your dreams are telling you something?

Yes, your dreams are telling you something. A dream is your daily progress report on the events of the day directly before the dream.

Does anyone know how to interpret dreams? I am curios to know...

I taught dream interpretation for 10 years

So here is a dream that I had about 3 weeks ago:

I was in middle of nowhere with hills all around me... I'm alone... I wasn't afraid I was just waiting for something...

The outdoors, nature = the area of your subconscious mind that is fertile, ready to encounter new ideas, concepts or lessons.

I hear planes and I'm thinking they are fighter planes...

The planes are organizations, circles of friends or family, church, school, possibly work... anywhere you are involved with a large group of people working toward a common goal. You would have had thoughts or interactions with these people this day. It seems there is some discord amongst them.

Then there is this woman, sort of looks like me,

In dreams, people who are of the same sex as the dreamer, represent conscious aspects of yourself. Members of the opposite sex in dreams, represent subconscious aspects of yourself. This woman, is the conscious aspect of you, that is always urging you to delve deeper, examine further.

she takes my hand and takes me to a very small one room cabin. Inside, she leads me to a small narrow door, made out of metal. The door is closed shut. There is no handle, no key hole, no key, nothing… Just shut tight…

Any house, is representing the current (that day) state of your mind. That day, you were not examining all the possibilities and were feeling closed off to new ideas and concepts. Perhaps someone in that group was trying to convince you of the rightness of an issue you were closed to and set against. (just an example, you will have to recall and see exactly where for yourself these symbolisms fit into your day)

She tells me here is the door that you need to open. I look at her and say, but there is no key how do I open it… and it’s so narrow if/when I open it how do I get through… She says I’m showing you the door… it’s your job to open it… You’ll find a way to get through the narrow passage…So I’m thinking (in my dream) how to open a keyless door… and when I do I have to walk sideways through it…

Whatever the inner compromise you were not embracing was that day, you did acknowledge to yourself, that although it does not seem possible, there might be some slight way of encompassing all sides. Possibly a way you would be comfortable compromising in, with work.

when I look back to ask her another question she is gone… the room is stuffy I can hardly breath… I see a window right across from the close door that I haven’t notice before I break the window with my elbow… air rushes in… no sounds of airplanes anymore… everything is quiet… I am standing in front of the door and trying to figure a way to open it…

When you opened the window, and gave access to the possibility of it not being impossibly closed off, the discord within the group(airplanes) ceased.

Then I slowly wake up… I’m not panicky or distraught about my dream… just thoughtful and sort of relaxed…

Yes, it is so much harder to resist or be closed off to anything than to at least admit to the self, that the possibility of examining options might not be so impossible. Even in situations we are against.

What do you think?

Soul encounter, thank you for interpreting this dream... what you said is so interesting and makes a lot of sense... I often dream of airplanes... And there has been something in my life that I refused to consider before but lately I'm considering it and thinking is not all that bad...I knew my subconscious was telling me something... and what u said was very close to what I was thinking...

I have dreams like this every so often that are this detailed and I know they mean something... one I had a while back that I am very interested to know what it meant since my dad was in it... My dad past away 17 years ago today...

Thanks again and to everyone who read this and shared their dreams...

Jumuaa Mabarak to everyone...

Fridays are suppose to be a good day...but this friday sux...

sorry to hear that

I hope it gets better...

I am off tomorrow to dress shop with mom and sister... Our brother's wedding is coming up... I have a dress... I have to pick it up from the alteration... My mom and sisters can't make up their minds... they buy and return... they look again... oh what fun

Congratulations Amy.... have a great reunion and time off....

We just got an e-mail from the embassy saying they're ready to issue the visa! I really hope nothing else happens...BTW, some of this wait was my fault: I didn't fill out the DS-230 correctly and had to update it after the interview...very tricky. Plus our caseworker was on vacation....

They said they would try their best to issue the visa the same day but couldn't garantee it...why not? Will there be another interview or anything when we go to pick it up?

Thanks.....

Way to go Debbie... This is wonderful. This is it... no more of waiting...

See u in US.....since we couldn't meet in Hamburg

You are in a place of transition in your life... some personal evolution. You are discovering inner dimension and resources that are allowing you to cope and move forward. You are now facing a challenge, a conundrum, you must solve in order to step through the doorway into something new and at this time unknown to you.

The woman in your dream represents another part of your psyche that always "knows" that which the conscious mind doesn't. The planes are interesting... they could signify travel or sometimes it's said planes represent a higher consciousness. You had the impression of war planes. Maybe you have an inner struggle with yourself. Or some sense of impending doom which has disappeared.

Grrrr. My break is over so I can't elaborate more.

Wow Jean, what you said is very interesting...specially the part about "sense of impending doom which has disappeard"...

Please elaborate more if/when you get a chance.

Yasi

Amen...

And PRAY that we get clearance from FBI SOON....

Thanks

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAY

Congratulations...

HAHAHAHAHA. Bet you guys are sick of my whining. I know I am for sure.

Mrs. Z... I can guarantee you that all those celebrating have been in those shoes and understand it. I have cried buckets the last few days. They're mixed tears. I am seriously so overjoyed and thrilled for all those visas!!!! Makes me all giddy. Then reality crashes down and the tears go icky. LOL

I was thinking the other day, I wish so much I could invite each and every one of you to our marriage celebration (if it EVER happens I swear to god...) and have a party. Otherwise, it'll be Moh, me and the kids. Nothing wrong with that either.

I need to shut up and eat my lunch. I could not face another frozen diet meal. I've stuck to it 2 or 3 weeks now (time has just gotten elusive to me) and lost a whopping 5 pounds (blah) but for some reason the last few days I am so hungry its making me crazy. Soooooooo the wheels fell off the diet today and I'm having a personal pizza and a cherry pepsi. Yeah me!

I know what you mean Jean...

My tears has started again and I can't stop... For a few days I wasn't crying... I was hopeful with all the good news from everyone... Now I'm hopeless again... My mom keep reassuring me that it will come and I hope to GOD that she is right... She's been so sweet and supportive... She prays for us everyday that we be together soon. OK, I'm going to cry again

Best to you all

Yazi,

I understand what you mean. I just crossed the 25th month being on this visa journey. I often wonder if this journey will ever end. I read some of the post here where people are waiting for 12 months and 16 months and I think to myself...."Wow, I remember when I was in their shoes". Trust me when I say this, it does get easier. I try so hard to think positive and focus on the future I plan with this man. I feel in my heart that Allah has helped and will continue to help us on this journey.

On a brighter note, I contact an attorney today and should could not believe what I was going through. I hope she will be able to help me resolve this visa issue.

Thanks Goldenheart...25 months is a LONG time... wow... I guess the patience comes with the territory, ha?

And I really hope the lawyer can help you. You're in my prayers... You deserve answers soon.

Hang in there...

salams all - just wanted to let you all know he got in safely and smoothly w/ the POE ( just a couple of simple q's - 10 mins total ) - just some delayed luggage... other than that... still in utter disbelief he's here...

thanks for all the support along the way -- wishing speedy reunions for all those waiting!

Congrats Omid....

I hope we, the ones who are still waiting, follow you very soon.

Thanks for all your prayers...

Yasi... What ME cook??The one person that tries to boil tea and catches the bag on fire?? Nope, haven't learned a thing. Not to mention that he LOVES Mc Donalds and KFC, he would rather eat American food. So, i got lucky there!!

I am staying at my dad's house until he gets here then we are going to go get a place So no house to get ready either. He "forbade" me to go shopping for anything, because he wants to do it when he gets here. (Oh dear, he can outshop me!!)

I think I am going to have too much time on my hands for these 3 weeks to pass!

Hmmm... I wonder what he looks like after a year!??! What fun!!

OH MY... I can already similarities here... HE LOVES KFC.... He can't get enough of it... We're in luck... but then mine loves certain Persian foods.... Thank god for mom... She can cook for him

He didn't forbade me, I think he didn't want to go that far (since he is not sure WHEN he is here) but he asked me nicely not to buy anything 'till he gets here...

You and I need to swap stories about these two...

This sucks BIG TIME... Why is it sooooo hard to be with someone you love.

God gives you patience... I am sorry for what you're going through.

You're in my prayers.

Congratulations... didn't I say he will call you in a few hours to say he has the visa...

This is wonderful news. 3 weeks WOW.... get ready lady he is coming...

Hey have you learn a few persian dishes?????

seeing his picture first thing in the morning when I open my eyes... I have thought many times to move it but I can make myself....
