You're Entitled To What?

America is a melting pot of immigrants, and New York City is a prime example of this. On a recent trip there I was given a tour through Central Park by an enthusiastic young man who was born in North Africa, spoke 3 languages, was a college student in international relations, and earned his living and college tuition doing the strenuous job of driving people through the Park in a bicycle cab. He was knowledgeable about the Park's history and funny and enthusiastic about his job. It was wonderful to meet this young man, who was so happy to be doing a job few Americans would do. And, he didn't act as if he was entitled to anything. He pointed out the residences of the rich and famous high in the sky in buildings surrounding the Park, worth many millions of dollars. It is interesting to note that the Park was created and landscaped by man, sheep grazed on its flat fields, and its original inhabitants were the poorest in New York City who lived in shanties.
