“How My Brother Leon Brought Home a Wife” Leon and Baldo waited for the arrival of Maria at the barrio. Maria was afraid that she will not be accepted by Leon's father because she may not able to adapt their way of living in the province. Baldo was ignoring to his older brother's question about why did they have to go to Waig instead of Camino Real. The reason is that their father wanted to test Maria if she is worthy to be Leon's wife. Baldo discussed their travel to his father.
I appreciate Maria. Because she accepted and respected Leon for what he really is. She didn’t care what Leon’s life back in Nagrebcan. She was a supportive and a loving wife to
Leon. She was so endearing and kind­hearted lady. She was very keen to meet Leon’s family. The fact that the rural is different from the city can be somewhat discouraging but the closer hey get to the house, Maria still manages to overcome any trials. She admits for having some fear, but she also shows clearly it did not stop her. I believe that social status is not a hindrance if you truly love each other.
Our parents are very hard to impress and hard to get their trust. But what Maria did in the test that the Father gave to her proved that she really deserved and love Leon. She will sacrifice anything to be happy and be with her only love.
Those, who lives in the province are very well known to be simple yet they are contented for what they have. They are happy with small things and appreciate what they have and how they live life.
This story tells us readers that no matter what it takes to be with the one you love, you will do anything to be with that person. We are very emotional and care about true love. We turn to sacrifice things just to be happy. And I think that if you are sacrificing it truly means that you value and you truly love this person. I can say that this love is true and genuine.

    “Maria Isabel does not say good-bye to her daughter. She does not hug her. She gets out of the car and walks briskly into the bus terminal. She does not look back. She never tells her she is going to the United States” (Nazario, 218). To me, this quote is telling me that Maria did not have a hard time leaving her daughter but without a goodbye is more spiteful. But the question really is why did she have to leave? This honestly is the worst way ever to ever leave your child in a country by herself without her mother by her side. I don’t believe that Maria is any different from Lourdes. They both did what they felt was right for their children. They both wanted to go and earn money to provide their children an education, toys, clothes, and anything else young children needed. So, why did Maria Isabel do this to her child after seeing what Lourdes did to hers? What was going through her mind? Doesn’t she know that Jasmine might have to go through the same journey? To me, nothing that she learned or seen over the years has affected her one bit. Jasmine needed her mother by her side, but Maria Isabel made her decision to go to America to be with Enrique instead of her own daughter. She’s repeating exactly what Lourdes did to…

    Many prefer to reroute or return where they came from rather than closer to her. Certainly, Maria Cristerna is a woman that whoever see her can feel that "strange" feeling of fear, and for this reason miss Cisterna suffered of discrimination and rejection among her friends and companions, and it is understandable, because anyone who sees a woman covered head to toe in tattoos and piercings, and with unmatched horns that excel her head, and her eyes tattooed the deeper color you can imagine, It can take away the dream to anyone. Maria, better known as the vampire woman, is a Mexican celebrity who, in spite of its external appearance, leads a normal life as a lawyer, activist, professional tattoo artist and a housewife. But She is also woman…
