Day 42 of 365 "Life is Good"

Meet John from Africa (Nigeria) living in Riverside, CA.

The one word that best describes John's life today is "Good."

If John could change one thing in the world he would change, "Religious views to be united as one Religion."

One year from today, John would like for his business of selling cars to become successful.

If John's life were a movie it would be about the courage and strength of his mother who raised three boys to pursue their dreams and move to America.

I met John at John Wayne airport after returning from a trip to Portland, OR.  I was waiting for Kimberly to pick me up and while I was waiting, John and I had a very good conversation curbside.

John's smile and optimism was contagious.  He was so thankful for the opportunities in America and his job handling baggage at the airport.  He was very proud of the car he sold today and was going to deliver it after work.

John moved to America in 2000 and has established himself and family here while pursuing education and starting a business.  I'm reminded that America is the land of opportunity and if you work hard you can achieve your dreams.

I'm believe John will fulfill his dreams and live a good life.
