     That I could take care of myself alone in the foreign land;
     That I could easily make friends;
     That I could surpass the feeling of homesickness;
My friends thought that I am strong:
     That I could maneuver any trials that come my way;
     That I am always ready to any battle that takes place;
     That I could outdo enemies, who trespass on my territory;
My workmates thought that I am strong:
     That I could manage any projects;
     That I could find solutions to problems;
     That I could handle work stress; 
Then why am I feeling like this!
I am not that strong!
   I am not a robot!
      My heart is not made of stone. 
I am only HUMAN!
