If you want to come to America, follow the rules and do it. If it takes saving money, then save money. You have to work for what you want in life. No one is going to hand it to you. If someone does hand it to you, be very careful, you will be asked to repay it somehow. Remember something about America, "There is no such thing as a free lunch". Think about that before you sell your soul.

Just do your bit to help. There are plenty of things that you can do! Help the environment. Dont just not litter and think that you just helped. Go volunteer, go overseas and be an aid worker, council people who have to put up with violence, use whatever power u do have to tell people about world problems even if it is just family or friends, they have knowledge as well and im sure they will share it with you.\n\nDO NOT be scared of terrosts. All they do is blow up cars, not buildings. George bush blows up buildings and makes himself and his buddies 500 hundred times more profit!\n\nDont listen to everything you hear, experience as much as you can and make up your own set of beliefs. \n\nStay away from processed foods, they are POISION. They make you sick in the head and in the body. Stay out of cities, yes u can make a lot of money there but the air is dirty and so are the zombies that all work there too.\n\nWhen you are old and laying on your death bed, what are u going to think? What did you do in your lifetime that you can really say u are proud of? Did you help out that poor little orphan muslim girl, whos parents were murdered or did you buy a house and have a family, than divorce become lonely and go through countless partness trying to find purity again?\n\nBecome as self sufficant as you can be? can you live of your vegie patch? How about your fruit trees? have you planted enough trees toi counteract the car u drive, the air u breath ect or do u think someone else might do it for you?\n\nMake your life an adventure! Dont do what is normal, do what u can and want to.  Do it today. Meet people who u wouldnt usually! Make your life yours!\n\n Violence is the worst form of communication, so dont use it! I hope I could help..... Goodluck finding your answers and remeber that peace MUST start from the inside.

The USA needs you! We all need you. Its you who have to believe in yourself and fight to make your dreams come true!!!  Follow the wisdom of this words that I found in an indian site:\n\nThe four-letter words of success:\n\nI "CARE" about myself, my future, my life.\nI "WANT" to change, have a better life; I WANT a chance!\nI "WISH" the best for others and myself.\nI "DARE" to be different because that is what it will take to get ahead, be happy, and be somebody.\nI "LOVE" myself, my friends, and those who have been good to me.\nI am not afraid to "WORK"—if that's what it takes to get somewhere in life, I am willing to "WORK" hard to get there!\nI want to "GAIN" all the knowledge, schooling, and training I can so I can be ready to be chosen in the future.\nI will "PRAY" for strength, vision, and hope; I will "PRAY" when things get hard for me.\nI will "STOP" putting myself down, making fun of others, and doing ill to myself and others.\nI want to be "TRUE" to those who trust me, rely on me, and respect me!

It is given more than I've taken.  You couldn't believe the sense of pride, accomplishment and experience you get in the military.  Use the opportuninty to do what you think you need to do and don't look back.  ANY contribution is serving this country well. God Bless America!

Yes I would. I have a deep sense of pride and patriotism to my country. We are the greatest country on earth and that is evidenced by all of the aid that we give foreign countries and how we support individual freedoms and democracy. I know that it would be the job from hell but I would gladly serve the country and people that I love.

The best way to handle your situation is to follow the rules established by Congress and enforced by the INS.  Just be patient and you will gain you citizenship legally.  God luck....

semper fi soon to be fellow devil dog. Stay strong and keep your confidence no matter what comes your way.  Cherish the relationships you make with your brothers, they'll last forever. And thanks for doing what your doing.  Not many will acknowledge it but the one's who do know how important it is.  OOrah

We, as FREE Americans, understand the sacrifices that you and all your loved ones and friends are making to protect our freedom in this very dangerous world. - A world where many nations have called out for our demise; and pray to false gods for our failure and death.\n\nThe despots, dictators, murderers and fanatics are at the very core of trying to topple all that is good. Eventually, God willing, many nations will see what the fight is all about, realize their own vulnerability and "Step UP". - But until then, I guess we'll have to "go it alone" with a small number of allies that see things for what they are. \n\nYour fight; your dedication; your commitment; your valor and determination should & will be justly rewarded - NOT just for you but for your family and friends here at home.\n\nIt is difficult for a civilian, thousands of miles away to shower you with accolades - But believe me, ALL TRUE AMERICANS stand ready to do what we can to have you, not just succeed, but prevail. -- Honorable people, protect Honorable people.\n\nUnderstand that their is a segment of younger, inexperienced, relatively uneducated "under-belly" of society here that just doesn't get it.  They have bought into the "negative American" brainwashing tactics that they have been fed - But I guess we all have made "mistakes of youth". - \n\nI PRAY FOR YOU AND YOURS.

Treat yourself to a day out, discover your talents and use them everyday to have fun and to the best of your abilities.\nRealize that you are who you are no matter what, and you serve a purpose on this earth, if you didn't you wouldn't have been placed on this earth in place of billions of others. God chose you and he loves you. No one else is like you and u are one of a kind, you've made it this far and will further!

First of all I assume you are young, using a term like IP. That is so old school and hardcore private. This way of thinking.... is Ok to a point. Yes, watch your ass at all times and rely on your squad. Yes, there are issues with the IPs..... but try to soak in the fact that most of them are just people trying to get along and make the best of it as they have had to deal with crap all of their lives...... which americans dont.  Soak in the experience..... and be thankful. And by the way, save your pay so when you come back you will be set.... don't blow it since you are there.

You can get a sponsor here and have them bring you over. Check with the US embassy in your country.

Well you could start by serving your country, that is aim for what the people want and putting your own personal wants aside. For example if the population wants the soldiers in Iraq out of their, then get them out, even if you feel they should stay. Also, do something great, like free up debt in a poor country, so they can feed their children. But you have to make sure the money goes to the poor people though and not to a corrupt dictator.

live everyday to it's fullest. Everywhere you go, people will try to bring you down. Don't let them get the best of you. Tell your family and friends how much they mean to you every time you see them!\n\nyou never know how long you have left on Earth, make every second count!!!

dont go in for "any" nation..... \nsupport your motherland.....\nyou should be proud of india and you shold make it proud of you by supporting our mother land rather than "any" other nations....\nbecause ur a muslim hindu, if u want to support the muslims, have 1 of the countries deep in ur heart and support it with whole heart rather than a hole heart by saying "any"....
