Each Dreamer has a different situation. Some have it easier, some have it harder. But we all are fighting for the same thing. The *opportunity* to become whoever we can be. If you choose to leave, because you are a citizen of a developed country, that is your choice. But for those of us who do not have the option or choose to stay, the fight continues. One battle lost does not spell the end of the war.

Each of us needs to do what we need to in order to survive, to eat, to work, to go to school, be with our friends. And at the same time, we need to use our individual talents to bring awareness to as many people as possible. We need to cause a stir. Make a video. Write a blog. Make a poster. Make a *dozen* posters. Call your senator, your representatives. Read articles. Watch the news. Educate yourself. Start a local group. Join a group. Whatever you do, be energized! Be articulate. Know your facts. Respond strongly and assertively to the haters. You are as American as any native born. But unlike them, you will have to fight tooth and nail in order to receive the same rights.

There is no humiliation in survival. You do the best that you can with what you are given. I have no intention of being a waitress for the rest of my life but I am blessed to have the ability and the means to feed myself and pay my bills. The same goes for all of you. Do what you need to do but continue to push for the passage of the Dream for yourself and the millions just like you.

Very well said. Kudos.

Can't do much here from my state. The majority already support immigration reform...

It's like no matter how hard we try things just don't seem to fall in our favor...

I ask what needs to be done to finally get this darn thing passed...
