I define myself by the courage I've found to forge new roads. I do not define myself by how many disappointments I've faced. I define myself by the forgiveness and the faith I have found to begin again. I do not define myself by how long a relationship lasted. I define myself by much I have loved, and have been willing to love again. I do not define myself by how many times I have been knocked down. I define myself by how many times I have struggled to my feet. I am not my pain. I am not my past. I am that which has emerged from the fire” ~Unknown Announcement: Teach for America Welcome Tom Grawey! Tom Grawey - Regional Director of SOMA (Student Osteopathic Medical Association). -Medical student at Midwestern University College of Osteopathic Medicine Thank you AMSA! Have a wonderful Fall Break!
