Migrant Farm Workers in Strawberry fields

Both of these images are from the San Joaquin Valley in Central California. I’m from Fresno which is part of the San Joaquin Valley. Images like these have always made me feel proud of where I come from and give me this sense of strength/energy to continue following my dreams. The San Joaquin Valley is known for agriculture and for a large number of hardworking migrant farmworkers who are trying to live the so-called “American Dream”. I have always looked up to these people and looking at pictures like these reminds me of my hard work and motivates me to continue pursuing my goals. I know there will be ups and downs and various obstacles that I will encounter in life but giving up is not an option. Just like these migrant workers, I will work hard to get where I want to be in life.
