I feel like I left something out of my reflection. For some reason the Lord saw fit to bless me with a love for Hispanic people, their culture and their language. I could not be in a better field (helping my students and their parents learn English and about life in the U.S.) and I love my job.
The stories from the book broke my heart. It almost makes me angry at the lazy, complacent Americans who have so much opportunity and still manage to mess it up, when little Delfino went to work at age 12. Many American children don't even know what real work is at that age! Part of me wants to say, "That is the kind of citizen I want in my community."
