Chapter 7: The Beautiful Laughing Sister- An Arrival Story

Reflection
Having the refugee experience can be very dangerous and difficult. A refugee is a person who flees to a foreign country or power to escape danger. The narrator meets two sisters from Pakistan and there name is Shireen and Meena. Both sisters had to come to America to have a better life. When their father had opposed Saddam Hussein and the birth of Shireen, their father life was in danger and also their life too. Everything has come so difficult for them. They struggle to find a place where come be safe. Also, their family spent day’s just drinking salt water. When they overcame their struggles, they have become stronger. Now, they have learned from their experiences and living in a better place. In my opinion, my grandmother went though the same problem. I could wear certain clothing because it will be disrespectful as well for the Kurdish sisters. Therefore, this article was really interesting and learned the customs of Pakistan as a female.
K.W.L.
I know that a person who lives in Pakistan is going though refugee experiences. Many people want to come to America to have freedom. I will like to know to learn more about Pakistan’s customs. I learned what refugee meant. This article made realize that I should be more grateful. Many people who live in country like Pakistan do not have freedom. Therefore, Americans should be thankful for having freedom.
