What if the world was more like Oliver?

There is a guy that I would like to talk about. His name is Oliver Jamie Johnson. For those who went to Cowan Fundamental, he is known as Jamie.. For those that met him in middle school or high school his name is Oliver.

Oliver isn't like any other guy. He has gone through some tough things that I can not even imagine how hard it must have been for him.Oliver was in my math class with Mrs. Riggs during my freshman or sophomore year. During that year he got really sick and they found out that he had a tumor in his brain and it was cancerous. So yes, Oliver had cancer. Had, being the most important word there. He is doing amazing now and to my knowledge all the cancer is gone.

Going through all that crap he had the best attitude about it. He was always so positive and always SOOO happy. I remember when he came back to my math class he wanted to take a poll.. About something so random but so fun. He never acted like he had cancer and you would never know except for his shaved head.

Today in class (he is the TA for my Political Science) Mr. Waldo was talking about the bus system and how if you are on jury duty than they will give you money for the bus fair. That is when Oliver comes in..

Oliver: "I love Regional Tranist. Bus #23 is my favorite!"
Mr. Waldo: "Why is #23 your favorite?"
Oliver: "It hits all 3 malls!"
Mr. Waldo: "That is always a good bus than. What's your favorite mall?"
Oliver: "Well I like pretzeltime in Sunrise the best so probably Sunrise."
Mr. Waldo: "hahaha okay, fair enough."

He is just always so nice and is one of the funniest people I know. He isn't funny because he MAKES jokes and wants people to laugh. He is just naturally funny. Everything he says is just hilarious.

Mr. Waldo: "Does anyone smell that sour smell?"
Oliver: "It's Miles."
(The whole class just starts laughing)
Oliver: "(clears his throat) Excuse me."
^Definitely one of the funniest things that has ever happened in that class.

So what I'm trying to get at is what if the world was more like Oliver Johnson? What if no one cared about what others thought and just wanted to have a good time and make everyone happy all the time? The world would be a much better place. If everyone was like Oliver Johnson, people would have to be happy all the time and they would just have a great time. Polls would be more accurate since he takes polls like it's going out of style.

For the most part, Oliver has changed my perspective on life and how we should treat it. Take nothing for granted because you never know if your next breath will be your last. So don't talk bad about someone or something because that might be the last breath you use.

Just something to ponder. Thanks Oliver, for always having such a positivie attitude
