Topic: What does a Green Card mean to you?
Consider this:
Half of the world's population does not have running watter (or medicine, for that matter), not to speak of electricity or guarantee of food.
The place where I came from has a new war every 3 to 5 years, and that has been going on since 2751 BC (!!!)
My kids (10,5,0) are much more likely to SURVIVE here than they are back there, even tho I might earn more and """be more succesful """
So I don't have as many friends, I miss my childhood and growing up in a much closer nit society, and my parents are getting old without experiencing the kind of relationships with my children that I would like them to have, but that's the price you have to pay in order to afford safety, freedom and standard of living. My math is done. |
