First of all congratulations with your 365 days anniversary at Steem. You achieved a lot and way more as I did.
No matter where you live you will always find people who ignore you or will scold at you. If you have an eye for it or ask there are also great, helpful people everywhere.
I lived in several countries, moved for periods nearly every year and I know people do discriminate me for the way I look in a mainly white/western community, the person I am and my self esteem in communities where communism is not over that long ago and people seem to think I am rich... by married women afraid I steal their husband, by those who are less creative because it looks as if my life is way better as theirs...
You created your bubble, I live underneath a stone where life is good. There is less stress and I can be who I am with the people I like no matter what they look like or others think about them.
I learned family is abusive and manipulative in the name of blood, so I have less family left over if it comes to the bloodline.
At the moment I live 2 lives, completely different lives. In both I am partly accept. The little house I rented in my homecountry is a nice one with very nice polite people. They have time for a chat, sing, greet if they walk (or bicycle) by... that for sure will not be the case in every neighbourhood.
The world is changing and it will not turn into a better world. I am sorry to hear you do no longer feel safe. It is the reason we all have certain dogs (I have 4 daughters, 1 son) and my youngest two were no longer safe in Holland.
I hope the country they live in now, that educates them will be a better home country to them as the one they were born, but above all the people will accept them (that might be the only problem).
I hope for you and your wife the problems many of us have to deal with will be solved soon.
I do not see the open borders since years.
I wish you all the love and luck needed.

Dear @wakeupkitty
Thank you for your kind words and I'm sorry for such a late reply. Somehow I missed it and had a pleasure to read it a seconds ago.
How have you been doing lately? Hope everything is okey?
I love how you described it :)
Thank you my dear :)
Yours
Piotr
