Although I've heard a lot of this before, there was one quote that struck me. When he was 14 his mother didn't think he was ready to come to the U.S. His father said, "He's a man," Deng recalls his dad saying. " 'If he was back in the Sudan, he'd be in the war fighting.' "

Count your blessings everyone!
