Houston Proud!!!

So as you may have seen all over the new this week, we were hit by a crazy amount of water around this time last week. It just reminded me of why I fell in love with this city. The kindness of people. So in 1995 my mom and my brother and I were on our way to one of the most important interviews in my life. The interview to get my residency card (green card). So if you don't how important that is, it basically is the reason I was able to become a citizen and be able to live in this country. So we were going down the road and we got a flat tire. So my brother looked in the trunk and could not find a tire iron. So we were stranded with an impending super important interview that was to decided weather or not I was going to be able to stay in this country. So what happened? The sweet people of Houston came through. About three people pulled over to help us. They provided the tire iron my brother needed to change the tire and I got to become a resident. That's the way the people of  Houston are. They pull together! And that's why I love Houston and even though I was not born here I was raised here, have spent most of my life here and I'm proud to be a Houstonian! This will only make us stronger!
