return to Mexico. My mother’s visa had expired so both of us were living as undocumented immigrants, but we had no given up hope.

My mother and brother still have a sour relationship but communicate nonetheless. Love brought us to the United States and in…

let such bad things happen to such good people? Many people don’t understand what it feels like to lose someone. On October 18, 2015 I finally did. It all started around May of 2015. I went to visit my aunt Ladonna after church Sunday morning. My family and I ate lunch with her like normal. Ladonna was laughing and smiling just like usual. A couple of weeks later, I went to see her again and I knew something was not right. She wasn’t eating very much. She would open a can of pears and only eat…

memorable vacation I’ve ever had is when my family and I went to Hawaii. When my parents told me where we were going, I knew it would be like no where we had gone before. Usually we go on a vacation every few years to somewhere that's warm during Minnesota’s winter, and Hawaii was the best choice. Out of the five days we stayed there, one specific day was the highlight of the whole trip for me and I knew the long eleven hour flight would be worth it for what waited for me. On that day my family…

and that didn’t count! These boys seem like spawns of Satan! To any outsider Carson sounded to be the trouble of it all, the eldest of the trio. “How have you lived with all those boys?” I asked curiously which made her laugh “I grew up with a large family of boys, I had nine older brothers.” She grins and my eyes nearly popped out of my head. “Nine brothers!?” I shrieked “And you live with twelve more?!” She laughed again “They’re not that bad.” She says “But for you it might be terrible. I…
Mason 's "Being Country", the story just shows that it 's normal to be envious of others and just look at positive things in their lives while ignoring the negative things. For example, when Mason 's family was having dinner, instead of looking at it like a feast because of the plentiful food her family had. Mason looked at it as "fuel for work". Instead of always looking at the positive side, we as humans like to generate an unreasonable conclusion from what 's bad in our lives to what 's good…
