Not my Dream


To live..or to work..in America has never been my dream.

It was everybody else's..but definitely not mine.

I never thought about it, hungered for it, yearned for it. Unwilling to give up the life I once lived. Unfascinated by the idea of relocating to a new world.

But as they say, Life will always be what it is...unpredictable.

Without asking for it, the American dream was handed to me in a gold platter. Gleaming with opportunities and all had to do was to take it.

And I did.

And now here I am.

Alone. Crying. Homesick.

Living the American dream.
