Because We are Humans

Few days ago my nephew saw me crying in front of this song. I can't explain why whenever I listen to the lyrics and watch the video clip of this song my heart break into pieces. He asked me: " what's wrong Tata Laetitia?" (Tata is a sweet way to say auntie) I tried to explain to him how important it is to respect and like every people. You don't know everyone'story. We must be compassionate because we are humans. People leave their country not because they necessarily want to do it but some political, economical, social reasons. They usually engage in some extremely dangerous means of transportation such as crowded 🚢 ships. not safe at all. Some unsafe trucks and they end up sadly dying. Like sinking in the sea etc. The despair, the hope for a better tomorrow. Today we see so many things happening around us but tonight I want you to think about people in some part of the world who are going through a lot. They chose to leave their families for a better tomorrow. I cannot say that they intentionally choose to leave everything and their beloved ones. This is not an easy decision at all. Nobody can blame someone who dream about a better life because we are humans. It is so painful to leave your land, your family, your friends, your neighborhood, your pets and go to the unknown. Of course everybody doesn't leave their country because they feel oppressed but there are always some reasons that push them to do it. The song clearly talks about a man who is ready to leave everything: his village, his friends, what he has built and even his wife to go to a better country (that looks like America). He wants to leave because he has no voice in his country, he has no opportunities, he feels miserable. He is in search of the respect of Human Rights, his dignity as a man. He feels like his dream are taken away from him. He wants to live and be able to provide for his wife. But his wife doesn't want him to go because they are still young and they can start a family. They just got married what about their dreams together as a couple? Besides, he doesn't even know the future. The man has already made up his mind. He is leaving and that's it...His wife is not supporting his decision . she feels sadly in pain but she still going to watch him leave. That story is heartbreaking really. Some people go through the same situation. May God give strength to men and women who are going through this difficult times of their lives. Whenever I listen to that song my heart is sad. Because we are humans first. we need to be compassionate. "Labas" is a well known French song. Jean Jacques Goldman is one of the greatest French composers. This is a timeless masterpiece. Whenever I listen to it, I cry...
America has always been the place where people dreamed to go. A place where people foresee a better life. I truly love this country because America has welcomed millions of people to give them a chance. God Bless America the land of the Free. Please I am not talking here about the politics and so on. I talk about the people, the country. I have met so many nice people in America. May God bless you guys. May God bless America for giving opportunities and dream to those who could not dream anymore in their own country. May God bless the American flag for its History. Brave men and women shed their blood and vision to make this country great. Brave men and women made that country a possibilty of hope for others. The name America was hope for some people around the world. We can't forget it. Be grateful. May God bless America the beautiful. Next time I will go back I will love this country even more. * * * on another note, I am done translating my last book. It is going to be published soon. "How Far is this America" this is the book. I told myself no matter what, it has to be published before 2022. So I am glad it will finally happen and I will share it here. I hope the story will move and touch us. It has to inspire some of us. It is a story of immigration. See you soon before the countdown to the new year. Thank you for passing by and thank you for reading My post.

A song that reminds us that we never change in fact we are still the same person we have always been. yes, we never change indeed. there's something about us that can never change from the child we were to the adult we had become. I have always been a vocal person and full of energy. I like writing. I like thinking. I always tried to understand the whys the how's? I like the truth. I have always been compassionate. I love pets. I was always surrounded by male people all my teenage life. I forgot that I was daddy'sgirl surrounded by this opposite sex taking care of me. At some point, I thought I was a boy until I met that boy who made me realize that love exists and that I was indeed a girl. He made me have some butterflies. Holding his hand was just everything. yes, indeed We never change. I have always been loyal to my friends and family. It is my person. I must not fail my word. my word is so important. I must keep my word. it is my person but also my culture. I have my shortcomings too. like anybody but I have never been mean intentionally. I like that song. Who were you and who are you today? Tonight that's my question. I hope u love the song
about the book, it took me time and time because I was busy with so many things not forgetting that I am a mother so it took time. But tonight I just wanted to remind us that WE ARE HUMANS after all. Love your neighbor. Thank you for reading My website: www.poshenvogue.com
