I didn’t mention my cosine’s success out of context, I was only responding to sis Juxa’s request for success stories. And I had to get his consent first since no one wants his privacies violated… BTW.. I am only proud of my achievements, not another person’s… even if he is my own cosine… Ya feel me.. p.s. can you please ask you dad if he can hook me up with a Microwave..

Baashi Posted July 31, 2004 Success story – self-made nomads! Typical Somalis in the West are young self-made nomads who excelled in the face of difficult and very challenging life situations. They are the Somali qaxootis in San Diego, Toronto, Minneapolis, Seattle, Atlanta, Nashville, Alexandria, etc. They were not lucky enough to have stable life, well-off parents, undisrupted schooling, or fun and memorable adolescence. They've tasted the bitter reality of civil war, spent most of their adolescent life fleeing with their parents in search of refuge. They've lived in completely impoverished refugee camps lacking resources or the means of subsistence. Camps administered by ajnabi, who just don’t understand Somalis and their ways, and surrounded by hostile local people. They've seen their parents in a very compromising circumstances begging for medicine, or standing in line waiting hours to receive the daily rations for the children, or pushed around by other parents in a fight to get water from the only water tab in the camp. They have been through a lot at early age. From the refuges camps in Ethiopia and Kenya to the sophisticated urban centers of the West, they’ve faced yet another set of challenges, culture shock, language barrier, discrimination, racism, and poverty of different kind. They come with high expectation and their parents and other relatives expected, and some instances demanded, too much from them. Young, inexperienced, and with language barrier, they showed diligence. They worked hard as cab drivers, as cashiers, as janitors, as assembly workers to make sure that mom in Nairobi, Baidowa, Galkacio, Mogadishu, Hargeisa, Kismayo, Kampala, gets her monthly allowance to make the ends meet. When faced unemployment prospect or imminent lay off you would hear them say Allah aa jooga or kheyr ay noqoneysaa, or waa la moodaa! Saber, perseverance, optimism, understanding, and responsibility, they showed all at tender age. Not they only worked hard and supported their loved ones back home but they also went back to school starting from square one. In most cases they've succeeded in attaining degree from an accredited colleges and universities. From humble beginnings, through very difficult life full of tragedy and sad memories, they have achieved their potential. I know six of these qaxootis by name. They are nurses, self-employed business owners, engineers, and lawyers. I had a roommate who worked two shifts in four days and went full time school. He graduated with engineering degree. I know a fellow who used to work as assembly worker in Seagate (high tech company in Minnesota) and who couldn’t speak English fluently. He went on to become one of the most successful nomads I know in person. He quitted his assembly job to sell phone cards. After eight years, he now owns gas stations in Mozambique, jewelry shops in three cities in America, as well as senior citizen nursing home. He employs nurses, three of them! My brother advised him not to quit his job for selling cards. His answer to him at the time: “I used to sell tomatoes when I was very young in Ansaloti market in Waberi…I know what I’m doing brotherâ€. I was in school at the time. He went ahead selling cards and he’s done very well. I've learned from him that confidence in one’s self, courage, and knowing what you want in life are the stuff success is made of. That is success story – a unique one indeed. There you have it juxa, it is not personal but rather generic one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
