Pura Vida

I have a lot to say about the battle of illeagal immigrants and especially the ordinance that thankfully was not passed in my home town of Fremont. I think everyone is entitled to there own opinion and I respect those who are able to voice it in an educated and professional manner. I also live my life assuming everyone is good, until they prove me wrong, no matter what color their skin is, what language they speak, etc. Yes there are things that Mexican families do that get on my nerves, Yes there are things that White families do that get on my nerves, Yes there are things that Black families do that get on my nerves. Every person deserves a chance to make their lives better and if I can help them do that, I will, and if the people of Fremont can help them do that, they should. Expect that everyone you see and everyone you meet is a good person, and more often they will embrace rather than dissapoint. For a moment replace your best friend with someone who illeagally came to America, they have the same personality, the same love in their hearts, the same morals and values, but they have darker skin and illegally are here trying to live a better life.

Would you tell your friend to leave because they are breaking the law? Or would you offer assistance in order to for your friend to become legal and continue their pursuit of success?

Positive reinforcement, reward those who are working and building a future, assist them, and live in a community that embraces diversity and unity.
