March is quickly sneaking past February and I am still hoping that the sun will rise soon. These clouds are getting to me, I cannot lie. I have been reading the news, listening to radio talks, doing my own research to see what is happening on Capitol Hill.... and it seems to be a whole lot of nothing (at least for us DREAMERS).
Let me go ahead and say this, to whoever is reading.
I WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN.
Whether or not the United States is the place where I will reach my full potential, Only God knows.... But I promise you this much, I will be great. One day, I will be great. I do not say this out of arrogance or anything within that reach, but I say this with a humble confidence in my work ethic and the intelligence that God has blessed me with. I have been given a drive much more powerful than the issues that haunt me day after day. I promise to use this one day to become GREAT at anything I do. I will reach it, believe me when I say this.
I hope it all happens here, but my family is already talking of taking our talents elsewhere. This is not what I want and my heart is 100% in this country, but realistically, I ask.... does this country have a heart for me?
This is the "land of opportunity" but I have yet to be given one. I am sure I have earned it, but the law seems to think otherwise. The DREAM Act / CIR is my last chance to give everything I have to this country. I am committed to earn, spend, give back and prosper here. If this country does not want my talents.... What am I to do?
**I posted this, not out of negativity because I am actually in a really good mood as of late (and still VERY hopeful)... but this is something I have been writing for some time and I KNOW some people will relate to my feelings and comments posted above. Feel free to comment with any thoughts. God Bless.
