Odd to see the details of one’s life filtered to 21 pages of check-off boxes and info sections. As I fill out USCIS Form N-400 I am reminded of the first time I set foot this great land.
With each section I complete think of old jobs, dramas, successes and promises afforded me by being a member of this great society. Interestingly enough my life seems to be fairly simple. I have had long tenures in my career, been with the same terrific woman for more than half my life and am raising two live-wire kids. Heck…3/4 of the dogs I’ve own have really loved me.
I sit here and wonder what the person reviewing my application will think of the summary of my life thus far. I guess we’ll find out in about 7 months now won’t we?
