yo soy las raices de mis padres, i am the roots of my parents and all those before them. i am the colors green, white and red con la aguila en medio de las espinas. the eagle in the middle represents myself and my people. i am the colors red, white and blue with the stars and stripes always surrounding me telling me that the sky is not the only limit anymore because man has set foot on the moon. Mi Mexico lindo y querido taught me how to always stand firm and hold my head high. The United States taught me that I can make something of myself, en mexico yo naci pero los estados unidos me creo. my mother taught me that education is the only thing she will leave me with when she meets her creator, echale ganas mija, no te dejes. im not here for myself i have an army of dreamers by my side and we are all fighting the same war, we are all battling the same demons just at different times. My Mexican background taught me that just because someone wants to build a wall around us does not mean we are caged in, so when i find myself struggling because of something blocking my path, i refuse to stay put and play dead. the united states taught me that I have to find a way to lift as i climb until the very end. yo soy la refleccion de mis paizes, i am the reflection of my nations.
