Thank you for writing this! The poem is amazing.

I agree that immigration is not what most people want. All of us are better off in our homes. You feel comfortable and secure. Plus, there is no language barrier and no discrimination. Immigrants pay a very high psychological price for living abroad. Your motherland is your treasure.
