On December 25th, 1999, my dreams came true. I landed in the United States of America, in Dallas, Texas. That was the happiest day of my life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe first thing I noticed was that there was so much food everywhere. I was shocked. I started crying because I remembered what we had gone through in Africa just to survive. We had to go to the stream twice a day, every day, to fetch water, and we had to carry it back home on our heads before we could cook. I wished I could carry some of the food back to my friends. I was actually in awe that there was light every day and running water around the clock. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI knew that this great move had been chosen by God, and He has blessed us so much.

You can now be who you want to be.\" I couldn't sleep for so many nights, because I was so excited about everything. I said to myself, \"Now, I have the privilege to better my life.
