I just failed the ny bar. I feel so far behind in life but I’m trying to remember how privileged I am to have a seat at that exam. My dad left everything behind to get me ahead. I needed this reminder 💕🇲🇽

I WALKED to the US with my mom when I was 4. All we had were the clothes on our back. She’s a business owner now, and I work at a start up & live in a downtown high rise. Si se puede!!!

The only thing we had was grit and the weight of doing better for the previous generation. 😭 My kids have so many experiences I never had and it’s the best feeling to know our hard work is also making it better for THEM.

You said “a country where we have no connections” but we created connections in our work places, our schools, our families, and our friends.

I’m an immigrant physician for mostly Latino families and the biggest privilege of my life is cheering on so many of my patients to graduate from high school and go on to colleges and trade schools on full scholarships. Their parents literally started with absolutely nothing. So many of them are going into healthcare, and I hope that I’m a small part of that story. 🥰

being in law school has me feeling like I'm behind every day. I needed this reminder that I'm actually doing something that nobody in my hometown had ever done 😭

I would stay late nights at my College to study and do homework. Even though I was a commuter and lived 5 minutes away, I liked studying in the classroom. I was by myself and the janitor would always check up on me to see if I was okay and kept telling me “Sigue adelante”, “tu puedes”. And it would always touch my heart because literally I would see my parents saying that too. I felt like I was taken care of and made sure I was safe.

We caught up and it's why this admin is trying to take us down. Too bad they underestimate how much we can fight.
