Yes, I get it. I totally get that religious negative slant. Even if you don't take it personally it is incredibly draining to be around. Racism..well sometimes it is not far of from the religious separatism...non-inclusion...****ation of others who think differently than us. It has got to be very hard for you! It is draining
Mu father's wife is coming for a visit with him next week. She is one of those people who ONLY says negative stuff and is very convicted. She also like to get in pissing contests with anyone who disagrees with her. My teacher Rehana says...throw their beliefs back in their face. For example, when my father's wife says "I don't know HOW you live in NEW ZEALAND, it is so provincial..." I was thinking I could say back..."You are so lucky to live in cosmopolitan Los Angeles as it suits you so well!" Instead of defending New Zealand...saying how much we love it here etc...I just throw it back in her face.
I KNOW you will find friends in your town. I know they are there for you. And remember people come and go..just like your friends who recently moved did. I am SURE that if you visualize what you want they will come. I FIRMLY believe in this. There are like minded, open minded people there...now you can focus on them and draw them to you. Even if they are not there now...you will draw them to move there. I know that sounds nuts, but I believe it. That is how I got my 2 college degrees, my husband, moved to New Zealand, my first nursing job in a beautiful ski area etc etc.
