I couldn't say it better...

My friend Marie just posted a blog on her thoughts on being an immigrant (supposedly something I wrote made her think about stuff - whatever that was). I loved her blog so much because it's pretty much exactly how I feel, except I'm not French, I'm German. Therefore, I invite you, if you'd like to know how poor Fran feels as an immigrant, to go read her blog entry called "Ellis Island". You can find her blog (Marie and Teanu) under my blog links on the right side. It's definitely worth a read. (Sorry Marie that I'm sending my readership over to your blog, but I really feel you captured what I feel so perfectly that I know I can't write that any better).
