Immigration People on Dream land (America)

Residents and protesters attend a town hall meeting to discuss the processing of undocumented immigrants in Murrieta, Calif., on Wednesday.    Immigration for someone who are refuge or people who lived in the poor nations for them to get a visa to come to America is a dream come true like winning a million dollars lottery. America is a land of opportunity and to make their living standard better, people come to America with hope that they make more money and help their family. For me when President Obama's announced his executive action that protects millions of undocumented immigrants from deportation. He help millions family not to separated from each other and even help undocumented immigrants who work for low wages. Main things those undocumented immigrants will work by rules and pay their fair tax to government and get right by the laws as President mention.
      As for me my parents they are refugee and I was born in India and I am so ever grateful to the Indian government for helping Tibetan people and than in 1999 when Bill Clinton was President, he allow 1000 Tibetan refugee to come to America and my sister was one among the thousand people. And from my point of view, it really help us compare to life we lived in India and life that we lived here in America not only that we pay and follow all the rules and regulation and even we get to help our cousin who still lived in India and I helped one of my cousin with college fees and rent and I am so grateful to America and now I can proudly say am an American citizen.Back home in India I won't be able to do any of that.
"You must meet strict requirements to qualify for relief from deportation"
"If you commit fraud, you will not qualify"
 I completely agree with President Obama what he said, for me if you want to lived your life here in America you have to follow the laws and obey the rules, so we all can live in peaceful life with no threat in the future. Obama's doing all this to help family lived together and stop the company who are exploiting the undocumented immigrants by hiring for low wages and also help the United States by getting paid from extra 5 millions people.
  On today news 17 States sue Obama for executive order on immigration and for which I strongly disagree and they shouldn't do that, they should at least think of family who are not getting separated if not for anything else. I think Republican should work together with Obama's executive action rather than Funding shutdown

How to solve the provety problem in the India ?

South India,where I lived and finished my school so I am going to write about how different we lived our life even though,its only 6 miles walking distance. I lived in a house with electricity and water but electricity and water are not 24 hours, during day time we have light for half day and everyday at 6pm we have light but its not bright, after 10pm than lights are brighter and water we get every morning at 6am to sometime till 8am, usually its an hour and half and people do get up early to get water and store in empty buckets or tank. That's my childhood life and am blessed with all this. We have school till 10th grade and then you go outside for further study depends on our parents financial situation.
But my neighbor, the Indian people they lived 6 miles away from my place and its called oderapalya, Karnataka State in South India,where we do our grocery shopping. There are some stores and the roads are always in worst condition and the Indian people some still lived in a hut and rest has a house build of bricks but the roofs are some used hay and some sheet( very hot in summer). The children I think they are 12 yrs or 13 yrs old they come to do work in a field and they get less pay but work only 8 hrs, now that depends on their parents, if the parents are in better condition than their children goes to school and they have class till 8th grade. But those children comes to work during weekends but other children works everyday. And I think at home they get meals twice. Some family don't have electricity at home and water is another big problem for them.( they get water from well)
Some family if they have only girls at home the whole family together they suicide, because they don't have money for dowry and if the girl don't get married at certain age everyone talks about that girl and maker their life terrible. So i have no idea how their community work, but they need to get children send to school for education and their government should set some sort of fund for the education and raise the cost of the alcohol because I see all the poor people drinks a lot.( head of the family) The government should take a big step to encourage people to do some business or loan money with low interest and loan some better technology to help with their agriculture land that they have,( Indian people still do 100% physical work) and provide electricity, and water 24 hrs and also reduce the price of food and cost of living and offer more job to the people to make their life better

Tibetan culture has a big influence from the neighbor countries like China, Nepal and India. Especially on food usually most of the time they eat Tsampa( made from barley). Tibetan people in Tibet used to exchange, salt and meat for food. They make their own cloth from yak and sheep because Tibet is located in high altitude.And we Tibetan people belief in arts (Tangka) to strengthen our Buddhism and emotion of life. Tibetan dance is involve in the part of every Tibetan life.Tibetan people sing and dance for nearly all the event. There are different type and style in singing and dancing.About Tibetan marriage, is like if the guy like the girl than he will try to find out her age and date of birth and zodiac sign then, he consult the astrologist to see whether it match with his. If it's matched than with his family they go to girl house to propose and with them they take gift like Katha(auspicious gift), barley wine and etc if the girl family accept the gift that means they said yes to the proposal.
Tibetan calendar is the lunisolar calendar that is, every three year they added one month extra instead of 12months we have 13months, each beginning and ending with new moon.An average Tibetan Year is equal to the Solar year.The month has no name but four month which is Saka Dawa, Celebrating the birth and enlightenment of Buddha.Each year is associated with animal and an element.
In Tibet if someone pass away they take the dead body up high in mountain and give it to birds as offering and we do belief in reincarnation and karma. For me Tibetan culture is very unique and for tibetan people we are blessed to have H.H. the 14 Dalia Lama in our life.
