Expatriates' Wednesdays: the unspoken

The unspoken is part of our life every day. Sometimes they are wonderfully promising and sometimes devastating, depending on the unsaid meaning of the message of course

Today I was talking with a psychologist and we have been addressing various issues that often emerge in the lives of expatriates.

I insisted on those unspoken feelings of this population expatriated through their work

I do feel regularly those unspoken facts of this population that I know now for roughly 15 years;

I think that expatriation can be an extremely difficult time to negociate for some members of the family unit. Bad memories can settle and sometimes rebounce back later in life, if not properly taken into account

Why aren't a few things expressed clearly ?

Because it is never easy to recognise our own weaknesses;

It's never easy to alert others when we don't feel right

Also because we know that when we are expatriated, we have quite a good material life then why complaining ? ! 

But sound happiness doesn't come with the level of material details

If the expatriation follows a personal choice, acknowledging our difficulties is pretty challenging !

And because fun is also in the program of expatriation ! Nothing is 100% ! 

Then, generally, time works for the best and softtens the thorns. . .

Why is it that the painful aspects of expatriation are not considered officially?

Why when attempts are done, it's barely half done ?

Recognition of a need means relieving that need, creating something out of it and turn it into an asset

I am currently working on a professional project: creating a space and a time for people to be able to express their feelings, where and when thoughts are recognised and taken care of in the upmost shared respect

If anyone of you is interested in such a project, in one way or another, wherever you are in the world contact me please ! As a project needs partnership!

Let me be very clear, the expatriation does not create any pain / psychological difficulties by itself, it may reveal it;

that is all and that is major
