Bitter sweet moment!! Finally approved after 16 months

When I woke up today it felt like any other day. Got up and ready for a long day at work. Before going to work I decided to watch t.v. I realized it was GOOD Friday today because several shows were related to god. For some reason a quote from one of the shows stuck in mind. "Sometimes god is slow but he never forgets about YOU, sooner or later your prayers will be heard!" and I thought to myself if only that was true in my case. I processed to head on to do some Easter since I had some extra time before work. When I was really to pay at the check out my phone keep ringing, i was receiving several txt messages. I decided to ignore them thinking it was my annoying sister. lol However when I was in the car getting ready to drive I decided to check my messages. And there it was.......the one message I thought I would never received. It was from USCIS. I felt my heart drop to my stomach. I was so nervous and scare hoping the message was good news. I couldn't even log in since I was shaking uncontrollably. When I was finally able to log in I couldn't believe my eyes, I had been approved!!!!!!.... I sat there in my car crying my eyes out. It was surreal, I waited such a long time for this moment to arrived. I spend days, weeks, months and even a year longing for a moment like this. I really didn't have any hopes for DACA anymore I even forgot about it. I was mad and happy at the same time I had to endure so much pain. I wanted this all my life, you see I came to this country when I was just a few months old;now, I am about to be 30. I can finally be free!!!!! For years I felt like I was living in a prison of life. Indeed it turn out to be GOOD FRIDAY after all!.....Good things DO come for those who wait. I am not the one to talk and tell all of you who are still waiting to be patient because I was not. The wait was the worst moment of my life. The only thing I can tell you is not to let your life be consumed by this process. Let all your anger and sadness out, cry if you have too. But then let it go...... one day it will happen. I spent a lot of time tormenting myself about my case that I was not able to enjoy life. My mom was close to death and I let valuable time pass me by. I will never be able to get that time back. I learned to let it go I was not even expecting to be approved anymore. But it was true..."god is slow sometimes, but he never forgets about you"

I am truly happy for you, it's a great relief to finally be able to kinda live a normal life even if it's in two years increments, I hope you the best in your future endeavors
