5-24: Life Is Miraculous

 Today I read the article Life Is Miraculous. The protagonist of this article was a strong person. He suffered an accident that almost ended his life, causing him to undergo therapy for a year and a half. People told him he can't return to college, but he was very determined, and later returned to the University of Texas. In those days he was very busy, because he needed to attend classes, undergo therapy, and work. He didn't give up, and finally graduated with "highest honors". After I read this, I learned from his experience to never give up or quit. To see beauty in life you have to experience some unpleasantness.

After reading the article I still wonder what accident did this person experience, as the article didn't describe it in detail. Clues in the article suggest that he suffered a serious bone break. I wonder if he could have done what he did if he had lost one of his senses such as vision or hearing.

Also, often I would want to give up badly if something is difficult. How can I become a determined person, like this person in the article?
