Two Ways

Self-transformation means self-assuming to be an American citizen, or more spiritually, an American. An immigrant who makes such assumptions expects governmental protect and embrace. The suffering of transformation is the price they are willing to leave as exchange for these benefits, while exile confronts exactly immigrants feeling of belonging. The trauma of self-transformation is at that placefore a dynamic against exile. In Bharati Mukherjees two Wap to Belong in America, she outlines how both her sister and she came to the United States from India with the opes of having a more privileged life.However, she spends the virtually of her piece describing the various complications that sop up ascended, between both herself and her sister, Mira, and how these hails have affected their opinions of the American dream. Bharati, in particular, sacrifices a great deal in order to move, settle, and prosper in the United States. From her piece, I experienced triplet costs that Bhar ati had to pay in order to continue to chase her dream. Bharatis first cost is her Indian citizenship.While she has no problems with giving up her Indian citizenship, others are not so quick to abandon the legacy their ancestors have established. I think its noticeable why this is a more important cost to some immigrants. This brings me to Bharatis second cost which is the disappearance of her ancestral legacy. Bharati, along with either immigrant who elected to acquire American citizenship, fails to obey her familys established legacy as a result of receiving this citizenship. Again, she seems more than willing to deter from the path her family would the likes of her to stay on.In other words, she has no problems renouncing 3,000 years (at least) of caste- observant, pure culture espousal in the Mukherjee family. Bharatis third cost is her innocence. When Bharati talks about living with her preserve in Canada and is suddenly discriminated and encouraged to relocate because of a Green physical composition that invited a national referendum on the unwanted side effects of untraditional immigration. She left Canada because of her being discriminated. She lost her sense of pride when that happens to her.Bharati dos that there is a price for those ho choose not to immigrate, but she neglects to acknowledge the dues that she has paid as a result of relocating. This statement confirms that she does not recognize the self-transformation that she underwent in her avocation of the American dream. I agree that The price that the immigrant willingly pays, and that the exile avoids, is the trauma of self-transformation. I also feel that complications that surface during ones pursuit of the American dream are also the costs associated with achieving their vision Two Ways By airforce90
