I hate how I feel.

Why?

I am a stinky Venezuelan-American (whos an immigrant) and loves Nordic countries

But

I "look" Nordic. Why? I have greenish-blueish eyes, light skin (it's currently orange-ish thanks for me having to drink a juice for my Magnesium defincy) and I have brown hair

I feel very sad when I get asked if im Nordic because I dont want to say Im Venezuelan because I was forced to be born in a country that is associated with negativity

I actually feel kind of sad of my country. My friends all have cool and amazing cultures, Jordan is Danish (lucky) Nihara is Saudi Arabian, Mason is Native American and Mexican, Seby is Chinese. They are from countries that are known. Nobody knows about Venezuela other than "Venezuela is communist and Venezuela is poor" and I hate being Venezuelan

Now, Im also happen to be Half-Spanish. I am only mildly proud of my Spanish side because at least Spain isn't always negative-represented. I just hope I can be able to be anything THATS NOT being Venezuelan. 

i hate my heritage so much

I feel like God hates me too. First he made me have Autism, THEN he made me be a Nordic history kid and also he made me Venezuelan

Dude.

Be proud of your culture.

Every culture has bad connections. It doesn’t make any one worse. They’re all especially unique and amazing. You are so lucky to be a part of one of those amazing cultures. I’ve always been obsessed with cultures because my own cultures I am so distant from despite my attempts to be closer to them (My Italian and Jewish heritage) and I’ve always wanted to just feel like a part of something celebrated through certain people. It’s incredible you are a part and are pretty close to TWO cultures and heavily educated in another. Venezuela is a beautiful place and its associations shouldn’t matter. And I love Spanish culture- be proud of that. Be proud of every connection you have with a culture. It’s an amazing thing.

I’m tired of seeing you so unhappy with your culture when I see it the exact opposite way you do. Yeah, I guess I may not completely understand because I don’t have that heritage, but from my perspective it looks like a blast. Even if it has bad connections that doesn’t make it worse.

And God loves everyone, doesn’t he? Including you.

So take a moment to appreciate every aspect of what you are a part of. Take in every amazing detail. Because it’s a wonderful thing that I hope you will finally be able to see.

God does not hate you. He made you the way you are because he loves you. Being Venezuelan isn't as bad as most people think. I think it's cool.

Tbh u seem like an amazing person and you don't need to be sad about your heritage. Everyone thinks that places like China and America are great but America is literally the most selfish country in the world. Everyone is self centered and no one cares about each other.

As far as the thing with God goes, a lot of people make the mistake of blaming their issues or disabilities on God. In reality, everything bad comes from Satan. He wants Everyone on this planet to suffer and he will do everything he can to make it happen. God is responsible for everything good in this world and it's something to be happy about. A lot of people don't learn this while they are a kid and so they start blaming everything bad that happens to them on God.
