God Grew Tired of Us

So this post doesn't really go with my blog topic, but I still think it is beneficial to talk about. I just watched a documentary on Hulu called God Grew Tired of Us. This documentary shows the life of three lost boys from Sudan in Africa. These boys were a lucky few from their camp of lost boys that were given the opportunity to come to America. They experience new and different things in America, such as electricity, Christmas decorations, and apartment buildings. They find various jobs so they can support themselves, and when possible, send money home to their families and Sudan brothers and sisters. Even though the jobs are laborious and often mundane, they continue to work and do the best with what they have. Near the end of the documentary, one of the boys is reacquainted with his mother who he has not seen in the last seventeen years. You can see their pure joy when they meet together again. The joy of family. All three boys at the end of the movie are going to college, as well as two boys giving back directly to their community through the creation of a non-profit organization and other various efforts. The lost boys are an inspiration of how courage, love and determination can help you live the fullest life possible. If you have not seen this documentary I highly suggest it, especially as it is free on Hulu.
