A
life poem that I wrote, titled
Immigrant Dreams has been published by
Eye On Life web magazine.
"Immigrant dreams," deals with the reasons that people migrate and the
problems immigrants face in their new host countries. Majority of immigrants migrate in the hopes of improving their economic status and providing their children and themselves with a better future. Other immigrants are driven from their home countries by war or numerous other reasons. While my own migrant experience was pleasant, as part of the modern
African Diaspora I observed common
immigration problems, such as highly educated people been forced to work menial jobs due to their
immigrant status. I also was confronted by the alienation that some immigrants deal with. However, not all
immigrant stories are sad and there are many for whom the immigrant dream has been fulfilled. You can read
inspiring immigration stories online here and
find immigration books here. For those who have not yet achieved their dreams and who are struggling in foreign lands it is my hope that they will one day achieve what they have sacrificed so much for, whether it be in their homelands or on foreign shores. I am back home in
Kenya now and loving it, and what I have found is that problems and opportunities abound in every land, they just wear different faces. Life is what you make it. If you are struggling with immigration problems and need some help then read this
