Cubana celebrates three years in the United States: "I thank every day for having arrived in this country"

"Keep going and don't give up," the powerful message from a Cuban on TikTok as she celebrates three years in the USA.


Lien BM, a young Cuban content creator on TikTok (@lien.bm), shared an emotional video where she reflected on her experience after three years living in the United States.

In the clip, which at the time of this note has gathered over 1,370 likes, Lien sent a message of motivation to her followers, encouraging them to focus on the positive and not give up on their path to success, especially after having emigrated to a new country.

With an inspiring attitude, he commented: “Look, there may be people who have achieved more than you in less time, and there may be people who have achieved less in more time, but don’t compare yourself to other people's clocks.” He also emphasized the importance of not falling into bad habits and appreciating the opportunities that life offers, despite the challenges: “What is easy today will complicate your life tomorrow, and when you complicate it, you will lose more years trying to fix it.”

The TikToker took the opportunity to thank her community, which had grown to over 4,000 people, and emphasized that her content aims to convey good vibes and blessings. She also reminded her followers of the importance of valuing each day as a new opportunity to move forward: “We are alive and that is what matters. With sacrifice and effort and by pursuing what you love, anything can be achieved.”

The reactions from followers were immediate, with a flood of comments filled with gratitude and reflections on their own experiences. One user commented: “Thank you for the advice, many need it”; while another wrote: “That’s the attitude, without fear. You are, and only you, much success.” Many comments reflected the positive impact Lien's message had on her community, like one user who expressed: “That’s the reality of life. I’m celebrating 2 years today. Greetings and blessings.”

Personal stories also filled the comments section, where some shared how long they had been in the United States and how they had faced the immigration process. “I have been here for 2 years and I am grateful for everything I have been able to achieve and for everything that is in store for me. A thousand blessings,” mentioned a follower. Another user commented, “My daughter and I have been here for 4 months, we reunited with my son after 2 years, we are grateful and learning from this new stage.”

Other users took the opportunity to share their challenges and thank the creator for the motivational words. "I have been at it for two years and I'm still making progress," one person expressed, while another recounted, "I have only been at it for 11 months, grateful to God for being here, but it has been difficult."

The positivity of Lien BM not only impacted those who had been in the country for a short time but also those with more experience, like a user who had been in the United States for 18 years and shared a piece of advice: "If you could share a single piece of advice that would help us in this country, what would it be? Many blessings to you and your family."

Lien BM closed her message by motivating her community to keep moving forward without giving up and to remember the sacrifices they made to get to where they are. As she said in her video: "Keep going and don’t give up, because also, remember everything you went through to get to this country."
