I reside in a retirement community in Estero, Florida, just a short 10-minute drive away from the beautiful Gulf Coast beach. The sense of security and friendliness among our neighbors here brings me great joy. I am profoundly thankful to the Divine for guiding my family to live in the United States. Despite the nation’s lingering issues in social justice, it remains a beacon of democracy and respect for the law and its Constitution. What particularly resonates with me is the formal recognition of my right to believe and practice in accordance with my beliefs. Living in a country where equal protection under the law is guaranteed regardless of factors like race, religion, national origin, and sexual preferences is something that I particularly cherish.
