K 120 Key 9: free 10: turn b) Have you heard the saying that the grass is greener on the other side? For immigrants, it usually is greener. Although they may not be living in a fancy home or a rich neighbourhood when they first immigrate, those living conditions are still better than the ones they came from. This is why they rarely complain about life because there really is nothing to be sad about. In their eyes, life is truly good. They have a roof over their heads and their kids are getting a great education. The next time you see an immigrant walking by, don’t judge them because of their job, the way they talk or the clothes they wear. Be careful, as some of the richest immigrants I know still drive their beat-up car that is fifteen years old and they buy their clothes from Wal-Mart, and only when they are on sale. Immigrants are successful because of their beliefs and the way they were brought up. So, take a page out of their book and learn a few things from them because it isn’t too late for you to do so and, more importantly, to become successful.
