You're right! Some of my siblings absolutely do not embrace their heritage. Not one of my brothers though....he married a sweet woman from Mexico. He lives in San Diego, so laid back the part he lives in. The sister I really get along with though does embrace our heritage. It's so cool bc she is very well off and loves animals like me. She gives a lot to local charities. She's over in Eugene ORE. I looooovvve it there. Talk about laid back. I hope to end up there. Full of hippies, my kind of ppl.
