It is a hard long journey for many people when they immagrate I know when my family immagrated here. I know how hard it was for my parents when dad had to work in a low paying job at first and then mum did day care during primary school. I truly appreciate my parents for all the hard work they went through to bring me up and make me the man I am. I know there are many questions when you come to Australia.

 

Will I get enough support?

 

Will my children have a good future?

 

I am testimant to fact that if you work hard enough with discipline and hard work you can acheive the world you have to be willing to get up take what ever job you can and provide for your family. At heart Im a family man and I know there is a lot of fear when it comes to immigration but I want to shine a light and say it is possible to make a success of your life despite your adversity and difficulty. There are always good lovely Australian community that will be willing to lend a hand and support you. I know there are those people who will make it difficult but you must have faith that everything will work out .

 

My parents took a chance in hope of a better life for us and I have my parents total appreciation and love. You mustn't take your parents and your family for granted. When you realise what hardship they went through you are grateful for them.

 

There times as an immagrant you will say I won't make it?

 

For me it was my self beleif in my self and true discipline that got me there. Australia is a wonderful bioling pot of cultures with many different cultures that make it a beautiful place to live and prosper. You must say I can make it if I work hard enough I can change my stars and I can give my children the education they deserve . This is why immagrants come to Australia for a better education for there children. 

 

My dad with say you are not watching TV you are going to do your homework and study so you don't have to struggle like I did. I want you to have a good life and a good job so you can look after me.

 

It is a true battle as an immagrant but you can look at the positive I have my family . I have a challenge but I will work hard and make something of myself. 

 

I tell myself every day I am worth it and I am a good person and I am powerful beyond measure 

 

I beleive I can acheive anything I put my mind to

 

Every immigrant parent has a dream for there family and pray and wish for a better future 

 

God made my heart full of faith that all may come right
