Life Between Two Countries

11/18/2017

 I live between two worlds. 
Stark contrasts of each other.

Two wallets contain a glimpse of each life.

One guards my pesos as well as a few scattered American quarters that piss me off when frantically searching for change.  It houses a permanent resident visa, a flimsy drivers license that looks like it was made for a high schooler hoping to buy some booze, and some old bus receipts that are patiently waiting to be put in the trash. ​

This world is now home.  
The noises.  The smells.  The unpleasantries.  
​The misunderstood.

And, with the greatest of fortune...
I unbury my second wallet from its hiding place.
American dollars, immigration forms, a passport.
My beloved SLC library card as well as a Smiths grocery card, give a glimpse into my other life.  

The light switch is flipped.
I am back home.  In the familiar.
The luckiest girl alive.
Feeling like a superhero who gets to seamlessly transition between the two. 
Able to find her place.
​In both homes.
