Two Perspectives

Last week my friend Steve Lowe, who spends six months here and six months in the States, sent me the following observation:
"I am anxious to be home in San Miguel.  Our wonderful USA has become far too fast, complicated, broken, adversarial, critical, contentious, racist, controlled, political and dumb."
Two days ago, we met a young Mexican waiter who had just moved here from Durango in Northern Mexico, where drug cartels are active. His comment:

"I moved to San Miguel because of its beautiful location and its peace-loving people."

Needless to say, we're glad to be here ourselves.
