The Journey of John, Panther, & Daniel Comes to an End (Or has it Just Begun?)

Today we watched the last bit of God Grew Tired of Us. It was a beautiful way to tie up the story. After three years of being in America john has become the secretary of “The Lost Boys of America.” We also learn that John Bul Dau was able to bring his mother and sister to America. We he went to the airport and saw her they both broke into tears. John’s mother was so overwhelmed she fell to the ground and John held her in his arms. It was truly amazing to see them reunited after 17 years of being separated. The best part was after they reunited John’s mother began singing and dancing through the airport! Towards the end we see that Panther is packing his bags, getting ready to go to Africa. It is there he is going to marry his girlfriend. The documentary ends with him walking through the airport off to Africa. We find out that John started a foundation and opened a clinic in Sudan. Panther got married and got his master’s degree in economics, and plans on opening a school. Daniel is still in America and is working toward getting a college degree. This documentary was inspirational and it inspired me to do more in the world.
