For me being an American has several meanings.  One and most important is that people in American society do not judge you by the way you look but by the way you talk and act in your life.  The flexibility in life and the variety of the life styles are great opportunity for everybody in America to find it self. 

America is the land of opportunities for everybody who knows what he/she wants.  Little bit of luck, lot of effort and good will can make anybody to live the life they dreamed about.
