IMMIGRANTS!!! MX MX

I have had this in mind for the longest time...to hopefully inspire, motivate, or however this helps..

My dad was an immigrant he now is a resident and has been for over 35 years... my father comes from small city in Mexico named Guanajuato.. my grandparents on my father's side were extremely poor..my father only went to grade school and dropped out after..so he could help his dad build rail road tracks, houses, and brick fences..at age 10 my father met my mom..she lived 3 blocks down the street.. My mom was from a wealthy family..her dad had a farm where he would grow vegetables and fruits... then to sell them off. My moms brother Tony was best friends with my dad..My moms parents couldn't stand that my mom and her brother tony would "speak" to poor "uneducated" people...throughout the years my mom, tony, and my dad would sneak out...my dad would go near my grandparents house and whistle for my mom and uncle tony to sneak. My father started to fall in love with my mom...at the age of 17, dad decided to leave my mom..he wanted to try for the "better life" so he illegally moved to Minnesota with his friend. They quickly got a job and had a tiny place to stay. Later on both decided not to just stay in one place so they traveled from Minnesota to Houston, Dallas, Wisconsin, Chicago, North Dakota, Austin and other places i cannot recall..also during those 3 years dad and his friend changed their names more than 9 times (since they were being tracked)..by age of 21/22 my dad was found and kicked back into Mexico..my mother had continued school and had a boyfriend of 3 months. My mom had gone to visit her parents at her childhood home and was told that "Frank" (my dad) was around.. My mom with such hopes left her 3month relationship and hoped to find

my father..and so they did.. My dad and mom dated for a year..then my dad promised her for a better life...he left once again to Texas..my dad was homeless for months.. He couldn't find a job and was sleeping under a ditch..an old lady chased after her dog one night since it escaped..she fast paced into the ditch and found my dad sleeping on a dirty muddy mattress..she woke my dad up and asked what was going on...he explained to her and begged to not report him. She did the exact opposite. She sheltered him for quite a while..after a few years (mom and dad were still in touch) my dad was able to get residency... And contacted my mom, with so much excitement he asked her to marry him and months later they did. My grandparents (moms side) wished my mother some good luck since she married a "poor man"...

My father and my mom have 3 houses in the U.S, 2 in Texas and 1 in Minnesota. They have 4 children.. Oldest son owns a trucking company, the oldest daughter is a psychologist, i am currently in the university to become a forensic scientist, and the youngest just started college.

My father once introduced my to the lady who sheltered him..her name was Marie, white beautiful pale skin, sky blue eyes that did not see anything but a human being who had a DREAM.  My father had so much love and respect for this woman..he kissed her hand every morning as respect...

Some people have not met somebody who has had this "DREAM". And may not understand.. I cannot change your mind when it comes to a topic like this..I definitely respect that.
