Hi new member here,
i have been in this country without papers for about 19yrs now, i will be 21 soon and don't know what the future holds. Often i want to go back to Mexico, my country where i could drive, work and go to school without having to worry if i am legal or not. I have wanted this more lately since i graduated high school and realized i could not pursue a higher education. I don't blame my mom because i know at the time she made the decision to bring me and 3 sisters here she knew legal or not we would have a much better life here. My sisters and i all have so much, probably more than we need, more than we would ever have had if we had stayed in Mexico. Still i understand your frustration, I am grateful for what i have but want to do so much more. These past few years i have thought of as a fueling source, its bad now we cannot do much but i believe soon if will be better. Maybe that is why we have to wait so long, when the opportunity gets here we will be sure to take advantage of if.
