Overview

"A man named Roberto David, dreamed to make it big in life. The purpose is to live comfortably-meaning to be able to pay the bills on time, without hassle. Even just a bit of it-he wanted to taste. To support his family-pluck them out of poverty was actually the main target. He chartered the thousand mile distance to land in the country with ""greener pasture""-so he thought. Little did he know, the green pasture was to be plowed, tilled, and tended in order to stay green. In the absence of a legal status in the country he landed, trials started zig-zagging his way. Without a green card, he can't get a high paying job despite his college degree. He accepted odd jobs getting paid lower than minimum wage because he needed to get by-more so, to survive. He managed to snag employment at different companies using different credentials. But mostly he sought employment which were under the table-poverty, though, did not push him to defile his soul. Applying for a green card wasn't easy. He tried to apply, but to no avail. With his Mom's approved petition - Roberto pursued immigration. But immigration won't budge. With ""little"" people like Roberto-it's not supposed to. Roberto was not important enough for immigration to bow. What then would a soul do-to satisfy the requisite of a comfortable life? Does Roberto deserve it? Do any of us deserve it?"
