Love and Honor and Pity and Pride and Compassion and Sacrifice
            In the article “Love and Honor and Pity and Pride and Compassion and Sacrifice” by Nam Le, the author first introduces his father arriving on a poor weather and then addressing their cultural identity of being a Vietnamese. His family decided to move to Los Angeles seeking a better opportunity for the family. His dad, along the way, showed many compassion and sacrifices to let his son living comfortably, including caring him what to eat and whether they sleep well. Later on, the author addresses discrimination conducted by his friend of harassing him constantly. His father was a soldier therefore he has limited female friends and was fairly educated. Somehow, his father is still very influenced by the military life, which sometimes reminisces their families’ past.
