Experience of 14 Years Living in the US

in steemit •  7 years ago  (edited)

Hello My Friends!

14 years ago today, my family and I decided to change our lives completely by moving to a different country for financial reasons. I am originally from El Salvador and I arrived to the US when I was 18 years old.

It has not been an easy experience as an immigrant in a different Land, but I have learned to live in it, be part of it and belong to it. I basically knew only Spanish, I hated English while being in high school because I just never understood it entirely and used to frustrate me; of course I now love it :)

In spite of all difficulties this nation has, it has been a blessing for me because I never gave up on it. It is not a perfect nation (no nation is), there are a lot of issues that compromise the country, but for the most part, Americans are good people and want nothing more than prosperity and good jobs for all of them.

I also learned the language, went to school and graduated from University. It has been a blessing, but it has not given me the freedom we all need.

That is why I think a platform like Steemit can give some freedom to the ones that really desires it along with other Cryto investments.
I hope you guys get a little inspired and do everything possible to have some freedom in life as well as financial stability.

"Love everybody the same way you love yourself. If you don't love yourself, you have no one to love".
"You change the world by changing yourself and providing a little bit of kindness everyday".
"Take care of your body, so your body takes care of you".

Stay blessed.

Actually the way you live, the way you think made this success and in 2018 I hope all your dreams need to be come true! And also I wish a happy new year for your family and loved ones as well!

Cheers~

Hello @javybar The beautiful Soul and inspiration to many!

There is a very famous saying of Napoleon Hill;

Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle.

Your story is motivating us as you struggled a lot on other land with second language. Indeed hardworking is the key to success.

As English is also a second language for me and i was graduated from the University back in 2015 and i started my career on #steemit to make a successful life like you. Authors like you, can teach me lot for my life.
Yes it is true everyone wants success but a few chose the right path. You chose the right path as you mentioned;

It has been a blessing, but it has not given me the freedom we all need.
Freedom is what we do without any sort of restrictions like restriction of finance, restriction of social class and of life style.

But how beautifully you managed everything and get triumph finally. 2017 went very well, and i am really looking forward for the bestest year for you in the form of 2018.

Keep inspiring us and let us learn from you.

Stay blessed, my support is always with you.

Steem On!

Totally appreciate your words. That saying from Napoleon Hill is very meaningful and loved it. It's been a challenge all this time, but it has paid off big time. If anyone like me can do it, I believe anyone can do it as well if they are focused on what they want. With the heart and intention you have, I can see you very successful in this platform. Keep it up my friend.

Well @javybar you are not only a very talented writer but also a very kind human being too. Your words would definitely change my approach towards life. Consistency pays off Man!
Your support and guidance would make my dream true on steemit :) :)
You are a source of constant inspiration for me, my Friend @javybar <3

Hi @jabybar, Do you agree?

Your words show your inner positivity every time. Your type of people can't bear violence I guess. I love your great words at the end of your blog:
"Love everybody the same way you love yourself. If you don't love yourself, you have no one to love".
"You change the world by changing yourself and providing a little bit of kindness everyday".
"Take care of your body, so your body takes care of you".

This is so true that nobody can change even a single man once he change himself.
All the best for your good work and stay blessed @javybar

thank you my friend, you are correct, I can't bear violence. I appreciate you visit this post. I'll be vising you as well.

What a great story. You have definitely a great head on your shoulders. With your mindset there is nothing that you can't accomplish. Love everything you do.

I am going to Guatemala next month. I need to learn my Spanish!! :D

As we all know, steemit is a great platform and have a great potential to change and improve the life of everyone.
I loved to be here.
By the way, i think you have mistyped the word, 14 year "ego" instead of "ago".

your story sounds real and original.they say "America is the land of free"but is it really? your story inspires and i know it wasn't as easy as your story made it sound to live there. great post

you have a great point. US is not the land of the free, but i'm grateful to what i've gotten from it. US empire will end soon. I'm an anarchist, this tells you everything

i watch this post . nice sharing @javybar .alredy resteemed this post

wish u best for ur change place and hope it will change all ur financiall matters and u and ur family get success on new place @javybar

For some reasons, America is the best country of the world. But its politicians are constantly ruining it because of wars. It's an ugly fact that it's spending far more money on jails than on education. The super power of the world with these priorities and goals? So, is it in safe hands?

this will some difficult for u to leave ur country and all your beloved and person u know from long time but sure it will help u to solve ur problems bcz i personally know my frind and suggest to change place to solve the some banned on ur financilly life

You're a great inspiration @javybar! Have a beautiful life ahead! Keep up the great work you're doing here. ☺

A very special topic, my friend I have been following you

Success in all the work comes when there is a right objective of life. Just as you have given you success in this exact effort.

When you do well. Then the success will come. Bad deeds bring sorrow. So we would be doing well.
