This is why I left everything behind to immigrate to this country...23 years ago, with $2,000 in cash and 5 days of prepaid hotel.
After 9/11 and 8 years of Bush I felt like a foreigner - stuck in this country...
I now feel the same energy that drove me here in the first place - as people all over the world do.
