the standard and quiality of life in my country

         

The standards of living in Dominican Republic are certainly high in comparison to quality of life people have these days. In my country sometimes having a good job doesn't guarantees that you are going to have a better life because a lot of the most essential items are really expensive. Things like rice, the meat, plantains and eggs are the most essential and at the same time the most expensive. As a result, people have trouble living there. Since they have to make a lot of sacrifices in order to a least get the meal for the family. These is why I don’t find the idea of Dominicans being proud because we get to live such a tough life, yet we still dream of having a better one.
