is NYC worth it?

I don't live in the US but when i graduate uni i deeeeply wanna get a job in nyc. the place i currently live in has a lot of immigrants so no one really expects anyone to be racist towards you. is it the same in nyc or would i face more racism? i dont wear any cultural clothes or anything but maybe my face might look 'too arab' for racists?

i'm genuinely terrified of losing my parents.

i can't imagine my life without them. even if they piss me off at time and yell at me or are too strict. even if i don't agree with them on some things, they still raised me to be the person i am, today and i love them too much. i hug and kiss them both more than five times a day. i've been this way since i was in elementary school, to the point where my teachers asked if i didn't receive enough love BECAUSE i talk about loving my parents so much. i genuinely can't imagine my life without them. i genuinely would rather k!ll myself than live long enough to watch them die. they're both healthy, thank god. but they're old.. and i know it's inevitable, but i really can't imagine living without them. i wanna die before them or k!ll myself the second they die. i don't want them to go.....
