Description

Luis tells a powerful tale of humanity in war-torn Baghdad.  The desperation of an old man and his grand-daughter.  The camaraderie of Iraqi soldiers.  Hundreds of families displaced, their homes decimated.  He realizes the mere thin wall of luck;  of having been born in a different country;  of having lived in a different country, with a different leader.   He realized, "That could've been me".

That experience changed his life.  He resigned to live his life up to his full abilities, in the best way he could.  He decided to treat everybody he came into contact with, with "love, dignity, respect, compassion, and show the love of the Creator".

Post-Army life brought new lessons and new experiences.  By living open to any opportunity, great things came into his life.  

A closing tip:  "you always bring the best you got because you never know who's watching, or who's going to see your work, because that's what brings referrals and opportunities".
