American Dream Article:

My Grandfather the Outlaw

To me the American Dream is a vision and a mission to achieve a good life, whereas the good life consists of providing for your family and improving their lives by coming into the state. Many immigrants have this type of dream and emigrate to the U.S. in search of work to support a family. In this article Mauro Bruni, grandfather of the article's author, Frank Bruni, came to the U.S. as an "illegal alien". Bruni worked tedious hours to gather money to support a family he knew he'd create. As you can see his grandson, the author, has grown up to be a successful man writing stories for the news. Many immigrants come to United States TACITURN, VERDANT in the English language but still they work on through "the uncertain journeys immigrants have undertaken and the daily sacrifices they make...". I find the story of Bruni and his task as an immigrant  is very well similar to many other immigrants because they all come to live the good life. The immigrant may not know anything in this new land but they still settle in the ethnic BASTIONS already set up by previous immigrants, but they still manage and produce the good life for their future American family.
