Immigration. Is it good or bad?
Hi everyone.
Yesterday I had a great pleasure to take my first class in italki and the topic was about immigration.
During the class I told which emotions, thoughts, associations I felt when I heard the word.
Actually the word "immigration" has a sad meaning. It means that if you're going to move to another country then you leave a lot of things you're accustomed to do and you leave old friends, relatives, hometown, homeland. And the homeland loses you, another useful person, who might help to develop the state but it can do nothing to persuade you to stay home.
And there are different things in the final target of your visit. From the first minute everything can goes well and in half a year of your living overseas you're getting used to the other life and everything goes well finally.
As an instance you can start to visit a gym and have a dream to like a hollywood movie-star or you're very concerned in fast development of your primary work skills to raise your own carma among new colleagues. And I reckon such things positive ones.
The downside of immigration is cultural difference. The vivid example is refugees from arab-speaking countries and Afghanistan moved to developed European countries last year. I guess many of you were keeping watching the news during the second half of the last year. And you know or even heard that a lot of people were departed from Europe to their homeland for amoral behaviour in public places and different violations. Sure, from the eastern people's point of view and their cultural mind they did right things. But the local laws and cultural customs were other.
Nowadays I'm working in another country. I'm working there for the last one and half years. Such event is not an immigration but it's a labour migration. And what I see comparing my current country and homeland is different people and different culture foremost. Sure I got used to everyhing quickly and the labour migration changed me a lot. I became a motivated person wishing to have excellent working skills, to know the English language better, to be more healthier. Also I visited a lot of places which would cost the whole treasures if I had wanted to visit them from my homeland.
Immigration is a good key to change your own life and mind. And if you want to accept the changes quickly you should be an open-minded person and think about new place in a positive key only.
