[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 873209, member: 55747"] This, in spades. I cannot stress how sad this is. Unless you end up living abroad for some reason, you don't realize how bad you have/had it. And it's not just "big things" like a specific crisis, unemployment, etc. It's the concatenation of a million small things. Worrying about getting robbed/stabbed every single ******* day, your kids education, watching over your shoulder every corner when you are driving home, using the cell phone with the inside hand (the one further away from the street) to prevent a motorcycle going past you and stealing it. And the problem ain't just getting your mobile stolen (to use the last example), the problem is also the constant sense of alertness that comes with it. That is incredibly stressful and tiring, but as H said, you get used to it. It becomes natural. [/QUOTE]
